We held our second 🖖🏾SPOC CoFest, in the great tradition of the excellent CoFests organised in the GTN that welcomed Wendi Bacon and many others into the community.

This was our first live event, run as one of 12 projects in the inaugural Health Data Research UK / ELIXIR-UK Joint Hackathon.

We welcomed a new and experienced participants, tested new tutorials, and refined the pathway from new user to new contributor - a priority for enabling community engagement and keeping our training materials updated.

We also used the excellent Maintainer page to identify and update metadata in numerous tutorials.
