Nextflow Training¶
Welcome to the Nextflow community training portal!
These training materials are open source and free to use for anyone. They are hosted in a GitHub repository along with example scripts and development configuration.
Whilst you can follow the materials any time, you'll probably get the most out of them by joining an organized training event. Free online events are organized regularly with the nf-core community, see the nf-core events page for more.
We have several workshops available on this website - find the one that's right for you!
