CREATE A NEW GALAXY LAB

This form allows you to quickly generate a content folder for a new Galaxy Lab.

  1. Unzip the downloaded ZIP archive and edit the content to your liking.
  2. Put it somewhere on GitHub. Production Lab content currently lives in the galaxyproject/galaxy_codex repository.
  3. Copy the GitHub URL and use it to render your new page by building a URL that points to your GitHub content, like:
    https://labs.usegalaxy.org.au/?content_root=https://github.com/USERNAME/REPO/PATH/TO/MY/CONTENT/base.yml
  4. Refer to the Docs page and YAML Schema specification for more information on building your content.
  5. You can also render your content locally to visualise changes to your page instantly, before pushing to GitHub.
  6. AI-generated content (optional): Upload a Lab description Markdown file and the Labs Engine will use OpenAI to produce intro, conclusion, footer, base.yml, per-server YAML and section YAML files. The generated files are included in the ZIP archive alongside the standard scaffold. Download a template to get started.
The subdomain that the lab will be served under. i.e. <subdomain>.usegalaxy.org
(Optional) Your GitHub username to add to the list of contributors.
Upload a Markdown file describing your desired Lab content. If provided, Generative AI will be used to fetch tool metadata and write the required Markdown/YAML files based on your description. Download template Markdown to get started.
