Why do nf-core pipelines use a bin directory instead of nextflows resources/usr/bin?
n
All files in the bin directory are automatically available in every process. This way we don't have to tell the users to install the scripts 🙂

Ah i see, both are built into nextflow but bin is scoped for the whole pipeline and moduleBinaries is for the respective modules. Thank you

That's correct 😛

but the scripts used in modules could live within a resources/usr/bin folder next to the module
