Nextstrain Builds for Other Organisms

I see on the Nextstrain website that there are maintained builds for other organisms besides SARS-CoV-2. Would it be feasible to setup a local build for organisms not listed here, namely Legionella and Staph aureus?

Thanks,
Wes

yes, that is possible. builds for bacterial pathogens are less well supported than analyses of RNA viruses, but you should be able to use the MTb tutorial as a guide:

let us know if you run into trouble.
