I'm working on a nf-core utils R package to alleviate the input processing for nextflow/nf-core modules.
As a good github repository isn't complete without a good logo, what do you think of the following ?
I've focused on merging R and nf-core logo, but I'm happy to have any other suggestion !

04/02/2026, 4:33 PMThanks @Phil Ewels I will update it with the template !

04/02/2026, 4:41 PMAfter reading https://resources.rstudio.com/about/logos/ it seems that we cannot use it.
The R logo that I used, seems to be with a different licence https://www.r-project.org/logo/
It seems to be fine to use this one and modify it, if I cite properly.
