Agreed.

So Thilina, you can first do cwltool on the command line (preprocess the
files),

then move to
https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/lang/ProcessBuilder.html
where cwlbrowse calls cwltool to preprocess,

and then finally move to a Java-based approach.

I think that sounds like a good prototyping approach! Don't forget you
might need time for GUI testing as well..
