Chapter 6 Tools
Four of the analysis platforms available on AnVIL include Jupyter Notebook, RStudio, Galaxy, and WDL Workflows. Each tool offers a unique set of strengths such as accessible analysis reports incorporating multiple languages in the case of Jupyter, rich genomics support through Bioconductor in the case of RStudio, a graphical interface for thousands of tools in the case of Galaxy, and extreme compute scalability in the case of WDL Workflows. This chapter focuses on launching and highlighting a few features for the three interactive tools while a later chapter discusses WDL Workflows.
