Overview of StaG-mwc

StaG-mwc aims to be a universal starting point for analysis of shotgun metagenomics data. It started out as a small workflow intended to easily evaluate and compare the results from several different taxonomic profiling tools to each other, but has since grown in scope to become a workflow that runs several basic analyses on shotgun metagenomics data that can be used to produce a set of primary analysis results that are useful to have before starting further downstream analyses.

The following image shows a simplified graph of the workflow of StaG-mwc:

Note that several parts of the workflow are not yet implemented, most notably the structure of the sections performing metagenomic assembly are not yet finalized.
