DESCRIPTION:In this tutorial\, the learner will be introduced to certain el
 ements of style in the construction and containerization of small single-f
 unction processes that facilitate reproducible workflow creation and execu
 tion. Then\, they will be shown how these processes may be kept up-to-date
  and alert the creator to the functional state of these processes (working
  or failing) by using a feature found within GitHub called **GitHub Action
 s.**\n\nThis hands-on-course will use a small example to provide the struc
 ture\, philosophy and approach to achieving this desirable outcome. **This
  course seeks to demystify and make accessible powerful methods one can us
 e to achieve platform independence and platform interoperability. Using a 
 simple RNASeq pre-baked analysis example to demonstrate these techniques\,
  we will break down and walk the learner through each of the construction 
 steps.** The learners will be introduced to Conda\, Docker\, GitHub and th
 e standard workflow language\, Nextflow. If time permits\, we will also sh
 ow how these containerized processes can also be represented in a second s
 tandard workflow language implementation (e.g. Common Workflow Language or
  WDL). \n\n**By the end of the course\, the learner will understand these 
 Elements of Style and will know how Conda\, Docker\, GitHub\, Zenodo\, and
  Nextflow enable reproducible research.** Moreover\, these steps will be o
 n GitHub for the Learner to return to and reproduce themselves after the e
 nd of the course. In taking this course\, the Learner will also be shown t
 he power of JupyterLab notebooks to facilitate literate programming. **Thr
 ough their participation in the class\, learners will learn and understand
  FAIR (findability\, accessibility\, interoperability and reusability) bes
 t practices. We ask all participants to get a GitHub\, Zenodo and ORCID ac
 counts prior to the course.** We ask for minimal background knowledge of t
 he command line\, simple commands in the shell environment\, we enable a b
 it of self-learning from the repository to facilitate the acquisition of t
 his knowledge.\n\nRegister 👉 https://bit.ly/30rn9EA\n
