# Getting started with CWL This training will walk you through the development of a best-practices CWL workflow. At the conclusion of this training, you should have a grasp of the essential components of a workflow, and have a basis for learning more. These lessons are based on [Introduction to RNA-seq using high-performance computing (HPC)](https://github.com/hbctraining/Intro-to-rnaseq-hpc-O2) lessons developed by members of the teaching team at the Harvard Chan Bioinformatics Core (HBC). The original training, which includes additional lectures about the biology of RNA-seq, can be found at that link. ## Contributing We welcome all contributions to improve the lesson!
