What are nf-core pipelines?

nf-core pipelines are an organised collection of Nextflow scripts, other non-nextflow scripts (written in any language), configuration files, software specifications, and documentation hosted on GitHub. There is generally a single pipeline for a given data and analysis type e.g. There is a single pipeline for bulk RNA-Seq. All nf-core pipelines are open source.
