Reproducible Versioning #1

Here are two dev steps for setting up Binder.

Note on using Binder: Do not do dev work here - or if you do, save it manually. All data and code will be deleted after use!! Binder is just a great way to quickly run and test code without installation hassles. It also is a great way to test if your work is reproducible on different cloud platforms.

  1. Click on a Binder badge and see what happens! It's magic!
  2. Set up the Badge in the README.md. You can use badge anywhere, but I also always include it in the first line of repositories that I have Notebooks set up for users who can't/won't be likely to run the code locally like a developer. It avoids all the software environment issues that are usually frustrating for users who are not developers.

  3. Set up the requirements.txt This is the instruction file for Binder Cloud App to rebuild your software environment so your code will run on their platform.

@jcoll You just have to click on the Binder badge to launch the notebook - and then wait for Binder to get setup. I was able to download all the files and do all the processing in about 15 minutes.

Above I am just explaining how I set up this repository to use Binder - so you are familiar with the methods.
