Why it matters in GWAS¶
GWAS tutorials, Scanpy/gwaslab workflows, and HPC modules often assume a environment.yml; papers that omit channel lists and exact builds complicate replication compared to sharing a lockfile or container atop the same conda solve.
Example usage¶
"We exported a conda environment YAML from the analysis VM and verified conda env create reproduced the GWAS figures."
