About - sidaw/codalab-worksheets GitHub Wiki
CodaLab is an open-source platform that provides an ecosystem for conducting computational research in a more efficient, reproducible, and collaborative manner. There are two aspects of CodaLab: worksheets and competitions.
Worksheets allow you to capture complex research pipelines in a reproducible way and create "executable papers". Use any data format or programming language — great for the power user!
Competitions bring together the entire community to tackle the most challenging data and computational problems today. You can win prizes and also create your own competition.
