 [Neurobagel's](https://www.neurobagel.org/) annotation tool takes BIDS-style [phenotypic data](https://github.com/neurobagel/annotation_tool/blob/main/cypress/fixtures/examples/good/ds003653_participant.tsv) and [corresponding data description files](https://github.com/neurobagel/annotation_tool/blob/main/cypress/fixtures/examples/good/ds003653_participant.json) and gives users the ability to annotate their data using the Neurobagel data model for preparation to inject that modeled data into Neurobagel's graph database for [federated querying](https://github.com/neurobagel/query-tool).
 
 The annotation tool is a Vue application, developed in [JavaScript](https://www.javascript.com/) using a variety of tools including [Nuxt](https://nuxtjs.org/), [Cypress](https://www.cypress.io/), and [BootstrapVue](https://bootstrap-vue.org/docs).
