CellProfiler plugins – An easy image analysis platform integration for containers and Python tools.

CellProfiler is a widely used software for creating reproducible, reusable image analysis workflows without needing to code. In addition to the >90 modules that make up the main CellProfiler program, CellProfiler has a plugins system that allows for the creation of new modules which integrate with other Python tools or tools that are packaged in software containers. The CellProfiler‐plugins repository contains a number of these CellProfiler modules, especially modules that are experimental and/or dependency‐heavy. Here, we present an upgraded CellProfiler‐plugins repository, an example of accessing containerised tools, improved documentation and added citation/reference tools to facilitate the use and contribution of the community.
