          Description

          To work on the Track Hub converter, developers need to understand how Track Hubs are used currently.

          The Track Hub system has existed since 2014 and is now widely used. So there are probably many training videos available on YouTube or on the UCSC Genome Browser Web site.

          For this task, do background research and identify the best, clearest, more current, and most widely viewed video training resources our developers can use to understand how Track Hubs are used on the UCSC Genome Browser Web site.

          Create and curate a listing of resources and prepare to present them to the team. Kindly indicate which are the best from the list you curate.

          As we collect these resources, we should pay attention to any indications that creating a new Track Hub converted site might be impossible. If the Track Hub format is too loose or too liberal, it may actually be impossible to translate it into another format. Ask: What will be the hurdles or challenges related to the epic.

                Some basic pages from the UCSC user guide type pages:
                Getting Started on Track Hubs
                All about Track Hubs basics/setup
                Creating a Track Hub

                May be helpful for understanding backend:
                Organizing Track Hubs into Groupings
                Creating Track Data Hubs on assemblies that are not in the UCSC Browser
                Dataset display characteristics in trackDb.txt file

                Github page with clear info on contents of the various txt files:
