 The **Community lab**, a centralised webpage that enables communities to rapidly aggregate, curate, integrate, display, and launch relevant tools, workflows, and training on different Galaxy servers. This user-friendly interface, built on the Galaxy framework, provides community members with data analysis capacity without requiring programming expertise. Users can run individual tools or create complex workflows, with full provenance tracking to ensure reproducibility, designed specifically for the community research (Nasr et al., 2024).

+# How to generate a lab?
+
+Nowadays, there are two main ways to generate labs : Using the Galaxy Lab engine (developped by the AU team) or using the CoDex (maintained by the Galaxy community).
+
+Which method should I use and where to store the files necessary to display a lab? 
+- If your lab is associated to an identified Galaxy Community (SIG), we recommend building your lab using the CoDex code for homogeneity with other community related labs. You can store the lab files in the CoDex repository (default with the tutorial below).
+- If your lab is project bound, you can use any of the tutorial below to generate the necessary files, but they must be stored outside of the CoDex repository (local GitLab for example).

+# Creating Labs with the Lab Engine
+
+The Galaxy Labs Engine is an endpoint used to generate "exported" Galaxy Lab landing pages from remote content hosted on GitHub. You can use this endpoint to rapidly create your own Galaxy Lab pages by pointing to your own remote content.

+For all the information and steps, check the [Galaxy Lab engine page](https://labs.usegalaxy.org.au/).
