Import Dockstore apps to the CGC

This page will explain how you can use the CGC to import an app that is available on Dockstore. Dockstore is an open platform for sharing Docker-based apps described with the [Common Workflow Language](https://www.commonwl.org/) (CWL), [Workflow Description Language](http://www.openwdl.org/) (WDL) or [Nextflow](https://www.nextflow.io/), which enables bioinformaticians to share analytical tools that can be executed in a compliant execution environment, such as the CGC.
