Setup

The workshop utilizes conda, via the Anaconda distribution, to build the execution environment for the Jupyter notebook exercises.

1. Download the contents of this repository as a zip archive: Download Zip.

2. Extract the zip archive content to an accessible directory on your local machine.

3. Open Anaconda Prompt and navigate to the directory of the extracted archive.

4. Set libmamba as the dependency solver. This will allow us to use the significant speed increases of mamba within the Anaconda ecosystem.

   conda config --set solver libmamba

   If you get a CondaValueError you might need to first install the conda-libmamba-solver package:

   conda install -n base conda-libmamba-solver

5. Create the workshop environment from the provided environment.yml file. This might take a few minutes to complete.

   conda env create --name pgc-user-workshop-2024 --file environment.yml

6. Activate the environment.

   conda activate pgc-user-workshop-2024

7. Launch Jupyter Lab.

   jupyter lab
