# bionix Bionix is a set of [Nix](http://nixos.org/nix) expressions for specifying and executing bioinformatics pipelines. It is currently a work in progress, so documentation is sparse. ## Getting started Install [Nix](http://nixos.org/nix) and then try `nix-build` in the examples directory. ## Example pipeline The examples directory shows a simple pipeline in the call.nix and default.nix files. You can build it with `nix-build` in the examples directory. The result will be linked to ./result, which in this example case is an empty VCF file. ## Contact Please come chat with us at [#bionix:cua0.org](http://matrix.to/#/#bionix:cua0.org).
