+# Racon + Minimap2 Container
+
+This container combines [Racon](https://github.com/lbcb-sci/racon) and [Minimap2](https://github.com/lh3/minimap2) for efficient polishing and alignment in long-read assembly workflows.
+
+## Tools Included
+- **Racon**: Polishes long-read assemblies.
+- **Minimap2**: Generates alignments for use with Racon and other polishing tools.
+
+### Code Repositories
+- Racon: [GitHub Repository](https://github.com/lbcb-sci/racon)
+- Minimap2: [GitHub Repository](https://github.com/lh3/minimap2)
+
+## Basic Information
+
+### Racon
+- **Executable**: `racon`
+- **Help**: `racon -h`
+- **Version**: `racon -v`
+- **Description**:
+ > Racon is intended as a standalone consensus module to correct raw contigs generated by rapid assembly methods that do not include a consensus step.
+
+### Minimap2
+- **Executable**: `minimap2`
+- **Help**: `minimap2 -h`
+- **Version**: `minimap2 --version`
+- **Description**:
+ > Minimap2 is a versatile sequence alignment program that aligns DNA or mRNA sequences against a large reference database.
+
+## Example Usage
+
+```bash
+# Racon general
+racon
+
+# more specific
+racon --match 8 --mismatch -6 --gap -8 --window-length 500 --threads {threads} {input.reads} {input.alignment} {input.assembly}
+
+#Combined Racon and Minimap2 Workflow
+
+#Align Reads to Assembly Using Minimap2:
+minimap2 -x map-ont > overlaps.paf
+
+#polish assembly using Racon
+racon --threads {threads} overlaps.paf > polished_assembly.fasta
+```
