Dear Ben, Dear Jens,
@ Ben: really nice work – we have some actions ongoing towards a similar goal ☺
@ Jens: Many thanks for also suggesting the submission https://elmi.embl.org/tools/ , supported by MicrscopyDB.io.
We hope to get more useful tools to be placed in this repository and aim to select most hit-links for presentations to next' years ELMU-CF day, besides the fact that it would empower the platform!
Kind regards,
Gabriel

This looks fantastic Benjamin, I don´t like it....I love it!
This would make a perfect submission to the community tools resource page that was presented at ELMI 2023.
