I've been following the vignette for IsoformSwitchAnalysis but I gotta say, it feels like it's more hassle than it's worth. For starters, there are so many typos in the vignette and function options that I've had to start working in an IDE rather than on my AWS instance to try and catch errors. Additionally, there are so many external programs that need to be run with the results fed into the package for downstream analyses. This is generally fine, except the output of these programs don't match what the package expects, causing me to reformat all of the outputs. And some of them (pfam) have a 6 hour or longer wait time to email results.
Does anyone have suggestions for other pipelines to use? I want to take a look at alternative splicing and quantify differential isoform usage. Very exploratory analysis for now with no defined end goal.
