Join us for our weekly series of short talks: nf-core/bytesize.

Just 15 minutes + questions, we focus on topics about using and developing nf-core pipelines. These are recorded and made available at https://nf-co.re , helping to build an archive of training material. Got an idea for a talk? Let us know on the #bytesize Slack channel!

In this weeks bytesize, James @jfy133 is giving a talk about the new nf-core pipeline nf-core/createtaxdb.

nf-core/createtaxdb is a bioinformatics pipeline that constructs custom metagenomic classifier databases for multiple classifiers and profilers from the same input reference genome set in a highly automated and parallelised manner. It supports both nucleotide and protein based classifiers and profilers. The pipeline is designed to be a companion pipeline to nf-core/taxprofiler for taxonomic profiling of metagenomic data, but can be used for any context.
