Nextflow is a powerful tool for scalable and reproducible bioinformatics workflows, and nf-core provides a rich ecosystem of curated pipelines built on Nextflow’s latest framework. Australian BioCommons and the National Bioinformatics Training Cooperative have collaboratively developed high-quality Nextflow training resources, supporting life science researchers across Australia to build practical workflow skills. This collection brings these materials together in one place for self-paced learning and for trainers who want to reuse and rerun workshops in their local context.
