🚦 Prerequisites

This workshop requires a few prerequisites:

A computer with a web browser installed

All activities in this workshop will be performed in a cloud computing environment called CryoCloud.

The only thing you need to have installed to participate is a web browser! This means you can participate even on a Chromebook or a locked-down corporate computer.

A GitHub account

Please sign up for a GitHub account if you haven’t already.

Complete the CryoCloud onboarding process

  1. Fill out this short Getting Started Survey to give us the required information to get you on the hub.

  2. Once we have your survey, within the next day or two we will invite you to the CryoCloud GitHub organization and CryoCloudUsers team (you will receive an email when we do this from GitHub at the email you have linked to your GitHub profile). Please accept this invitation within 7 days or it will disappear and we will need to resend it. Your membership on that GitHub team provides you with access to the CryoCloud hub.

  3. Open up the CryoCloud JupyterHub to make sure it works for you. You will need your Github username and password to sign on. A 404 error message means you are not yet part of the GitHub org and need to accept the invitation from GitHub first.

⚠️ Critical: Accept the invitation to join the CryoCloud team

Once we have your github ID, we will send you an invitation to join a GitHub team that will give you access to log in to CryoCloud. You must accept that invitation within 7 days!
