Expand intro page and instructor notes
It would be good to expand the intro page to give more on:
- what is snakemake
- why use snakemake
- the target audience
There's good examples of this in other carpentries lessons that could be quickly modified, e.g. workflows with nextflow. And that also has extra background and resources in instructor notes.
This suggestion is designed to make it more inclusive both to learners trying to choose whether to register for a course, and to those trying self-study.
Some of the material is already there on https://edcarp.github.io/Ed-DaSH/ed-dash_lessons/snakemake.html
Not done yet. Still need to fix the instructor notes.
