Introduction to the CCKP Toolkit - COMING SOON

The MC2 Center in collaboration with the Software Gardening Almanack presents an orientation to the Cancer Complexity Knowledge Portal Tookit providing background and use cases. The Toolkit provides a summary of the sustainability, documentation and useability for every tool (180 and growing!) hosted in the CCKP. This integration enhances user decision-making regarding tool use and adoption and closes the feedback loop for developers seeking to align with community standards.
