# CloWM Backend
## Description
CloWM is a user-friendly system that allows researchers to start a workflow using the Web UI easily. With minimal
effort, workflow developers can quickly turn their versioned workflow into a web service that reviewers inspect before
publication. End users access CloWM with LS Login, a popular SSO provider in the life sciences community. They can
easily manage and upload their data into personalized S3 buckets and execute workflows on a scalable compute cluster.
The Web UI makes it simple to select a workflow by automatically loading all necessary documentation and generating a
user interface to input parameters and data for workflow execution.
