# What it is

[DNA Subway](https://dnasubway.cyverse.org/) packages genomics workflows —
annotation, phylogenetics, RNA-Seq, and DNA barcoding — as guided "subway lines"
for classroom use. It hides the command line and the scheduler so that students
work with the biology rather than the infrastructure.

It runs against CyVerse accounts and reads and writes the
[Data Store](https://docs.cyverse.org/platform/data-store/), but it is a separate application from the
[Discovery Environment](https://docs.cyverse.org/platform/discovery-environment/) and is not part of the
deployment procedures in this bundle.

!!! note "This document is a stub"

    It exists so the service is discoverable and its relationship to the platform
    is recorded. Educational documentation for DNA Subway is maintained with the
    application itself.
