Research direction

Review existing posts in src/posts and the blog guidance linked in the issue, then choose a genomics use case and gather its context, references, and any illustrative images or code. Create a Markdown post with front matter covering the proposed user-story outline; done means a complete, publishable story for the Xarray blog.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

user-story

This is a proposal for a genomics use case story for Xarray. The story will be published on Xarray's blog (https://xarray.dev/blog).

Why?

We've seen Xarray is used in a number of genomics applications (e.g. @alimanfoo's blog post) and we've seen some discussion about more in-depth applications. A user story blog post showing how Xarray can be used to represent and analyze genomics data would help socialize the concept across the Xarray developer and genomics communities.

What?

We are targeting a short and non-technical post that illustrates how Xarray is (or could be) used in your genomics context. Below is a template outline that you should feel free to modify:

  1. Who am I?
  2. What problem am I trying to solve?
  3. How does Xarray help?
  4. Why did I choose Xarray?
  5. Current pain points (or ways that Xarray could better serve your use case)
  6. Technology I use around Xarray
  7. Anything else to know?
  8. Links and references

Feel free to insert images or short code blocks if they help you tell your story.

How?

Xarray's blog using Markdown with some front-matter. You can copy one of the existing posts to get started or you can write in a google-doc-like-thing and ask us to do the markdown formatting. If you copy a previous post, use a name like user-story-genomics or whatever makes sense for your application.
