r2dii analysts and other folks interested in a lightweight toolkit to ensure anyone can reproduce their work with no more than a web browser.
Why is this important?
Research is in crisis because it's often hard to reproduce researchers's code. A big part of the problem is that reproducibility depends not only on the code but also on the computing environment that code runs on. (A solution to that problem is Docker, but mastering Docker takes a lot of effort.) Wouldn't it be nice for anyone to reproduce your research just by clicking a button on their web browser? Meet binder.
What should be covered?

Suggested speakers or contributors
