DASL Guide

We maintain the WILDS Contributor Guide as a collection of guidelines, review criteria, and best practices for developing production-ready WDL and Nextflow workflows, research compendia, Docker files and software.

Our goal in developing the WILDS Contributor Guide is not just limited to the care and keeping of WILDS, we hope it can serve as a model for research or software development groups in terms of how they think about code and software quality.

Make a contribution

If you would like to make a contribution to any DaSL WILDS projects please open a pull request in the appropriate GitHub repository. For example, if you want to make a contribution to the sixtyfour package, open a pull request in the repository for that package at https://github.com/getwilds/sixtyfour/. We are interested in accepting many different types of contributions. If you have not contributed to WILDS in the past, get in touch by emailing us and we would be happy to discuss the contribution you have in mind. Contributions in the form of reporting reproducable bugs, bug fixes, new features, improved documentation, additional software tests, translation and localization, blogs, or tutorials are all welcome.

If you are interested in making another kind of contribution, we would be happy to chat. Please contact us at wilds@fredhutch.org.
