# Repositories

[Workflow](/products/workbench/workflows.md) repositories play a pivotal role in promoting reproducibility, scalability, and ease of access in bioinformatics and computational analyses. They offer a centralized platform to share, access, and manage workflows. With the integration of these repositories, platforms like Workbench ensure that users can access a vast array of tools and pipelines, both public and private, to suit their analytical needs.

### Dockstore

Workbench integrates with [Dockstore](https://dockstore.org/), a platform dedicated to the sharing of analytical tools and workflows. With this integration, Workbench users can access and leverage the vast collection of public workflows shared by the global community.
