## What gen-epix-dev does, in the publisher's words

Gen-EpiX is a platform for visualizing and analyzing genomic epidemiology data. It can be used for any disease and has very fine-grained access controls to enable collaboration between multiple organizations. It does not include, by design, bioinformatics pipelines or any other data analysis pipelines.

The platform is currently at the beta release stage and as such not yet usable for production. We are currently working to get the platform released, for use in the Netherlands as the official national platform for laboratory-based surveillance of infectious diseases. Feel free to contact us here if you are interested.

This project is divided among the following repositories:

- gen-epix-api: the backend package developed for Gen-EpiX.
- gen-epix-ui: the frontend ui library developed for Gen-EpiX.
- gen-epix-ui-tools: a library of general purpose frontend tools made for Gen-Epix.

## Skills

- prompt-steering: Use when creating or refining prompts for coding, debugging, refactoring, or review tasks. Steer GitHub Copilot Chat in VS Code toward reliable outputs. Produces copy/paste-ready prompt templates with goal, constraints, context pinning, definition of done, and verification plan.
- pytest-coverage: Run pytest tests with coverage, discover lines missing coverage, and increase coverage to 100%.

Descriptions come from the frontmatter of each SKILL.md, punctuation lightly normalized.
