Welcome to the Galaxy Community Hub
The meeting point where you can find curated documentation for all things Galaxy
Galaxy is an open-source platform for FAIR data analysis that enables users to:
- Use tools from various domains (that can be plugged into workflows) through its graphical web interface.
- Run code in interactive environments (RStudio, Jupyter...) along with other tools or workflows.
- Manage data by sharing and publishing results, workflows, and visualizations.
- Ensure reproducibility by capturing the necessary information to repeat and understand data analyses.
The Galaxy Community is actively involved in helping the ecosystem improve and sharing scientific discoveries.

The microGalaxy community of practice would like to learn more about use-cases where Galaxy was beneficial, and also the barriers that prevent researchers from using Galaxy. The aim is to collectively find solutions to improve user experience and reduce barriers. To this end, we are launching a survey to reach out to, and learn from, the microbial research community.
Effortlessly navigate your Galaxy history with enhanced search options
Data searchability in the Galaxy History panel has been taken to new levels with the advanced search options that allow users to not only find items with more ease, but also find relations within items in their history.
We launched the Galaxy Mentor Network one year ago with the idea to onboard new members in the community. Now, one year later, we realize that we failed. We still believe in the power that the Galaxy Mentor Network, and, in that spirit, we would like to relaunch the Galaxy Mentor Network with a new matching process.
Exporting structured data like RO-Crate or BioComputeObjects
Galaxy has a very powerful and extensible exporting framework that now can export RO-Crate and BioComputeObjects
Success Story: “TIaaS: Training Infrastructure as a Service”
TIaaS allows trainees’ jobs to be run preferentially and avoids long execution times, depending on the server load. By providing access to this service, the Galaxy Training Network ensured that TIaaS would be freely available to anyone and facilitated access to an extensive catalogue of FAIR training materials.
