GA4GH SchemaBlocks {S}[B] Community¶

The website of the GA4GH SchemaBlocks Community ({S}[B]) represents information about data schema components, standards and procedures with consensus support from GA4GH members. The documents should not be considered "authoritative GA4GH recommendations" but rather represent community-provide documentation and implementation examples. For more information on GA4GH, please visit the GA4GH Website.
