Hey there! depictio loading We built a dashboard for viralmetagenome, and we would love your eyes on it @Joon Klaps 🙂 Depictio (open source, from EMBL) turns the output of a workflow run into an interactive dashboard you can share, so nobody has to write a Shiny or Streamlit app for each project. Point a template at any run of a pipeline and you get the same dashboard, which you can edit (UI & YAML), version and comment. 🦠 The viralmetagenome dashboard template shows the MultiQC report, the samples, the de novo contigs, the consensus genomes, the mapping coverage and the variants each genome carries. 🙌 Could you have a look? Tell us what is useful, what is misleading and what is missing, in #C0AFS06G9HR (all templates and details there) or in the viralmetagenome GitHub discussion. Even one line helps, thank you!
🔍 Would a genome browser help here? The reads and variants along each viral genome could be opened in the embedded browser, linked to the tables and filters. Have a look at a finished one, nascent (Genome signal tab), raredisease (Locus tab) or viralrecon (Variants tab) and tell us which tracks you would want for viralmetagenome. How it works, with examples: genome browser docs. Illustration example (nf-core/viralrecon dashboard, not viralmetagenome data): the embedded genome browser (JBrowse 2) of Depictio 1.20.

Thanks @Thomas Weber! 🙌 I had a proper look with a segmented, multi-virus run (LASV + HAZV): the structure is solid, but so far it has only seen the SARS-CoV-2 megatest and we should patch the template for segmented viruses. Regarding the genome browser, yes! Consensus + dedup BAM + per-base depth + VCF, zoomed on the genome ends. The catch is that every genome has its own reference, so it needs a per-genome assembly (or I make the pipeline publish one indexed FASTA per run). I replied more in depth on some other stuff on the discussion thread.
