gxformat2 defines a high-level, human-readable, and human-writable workflow description format for Galaxy, known as Format 2. This package facilitates the creation, parsing, and conversion of Galaxy workflows, addressing the limitations of the older `.ga` format and moving towards compatibility with standards like the Common Workflow Language (CWL). It is actively developed and supports Galaxy versions 19.09 and newer, though the format is still somewhat experimental and may undergo minor backward-incompatible changes. The current version is 0.24.0, with a somewhat regular release cadence.
