1. Introduction
In this tutorial, the SARS-CoV-2 Mpro which leads to the rapid spread of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) throughout the world is selected as the example target. The vinardo score of ligands is calculated based on the grid file of SARS-CoV-2 Mpro. This example can be generalized to other proteins. Here, MolAICal (https://doi.org/10.1093/bib/bbaa161) is employed for this tutorial.
