This section describes the data reduction flows (processing sequences) for different types of MAROONX observations.
Each flow represents a complete processing pathway from raw data to science-ready products.

.. note::

   Data reduction flows define the logical sequence of processing steps required for different
   observation types. This section will be expanded with detailed flow diagrams and descriptions
   as the MAROONX pipeline development progresses.

   * Calibration flows (darks, flats, wavelength calibrations)
   * Science observation flows
   * Quality assessment flows
   * Flow diagrams
