👋 @Wytamma - thanks for your submission. Due to the relatively small amount of code, the editors will now discuss if it meets the substantial scholarly effort criterion for review by JOSS. You should hear back in a week or two.

Thanks @danielskatz,

Just FYI the majority of the code is in the snk sister project Snk-CLI. There are two different projects so that users can use Snk-CLI without depending on the main Snk application. Details here -> https://snk.wytamma.com/workflow_packages and in the paper.md.

Kind regards,

Wytamma
