environments and kernels #8

Start with a short explanation why you would want an environment. Then how to make one using conda and finally how to set up a kernel for jupyter for that environment.

Looks good, Anderson! Should we also include a description of how to create virtual environments using venv? By the way, I like the Beyond Thunderdome reference.

Oh also, the new page needs to be added to the index.rst in order for it to get displayed on the

....rendered page.

We could. I guess that depends if Zach goes all-in on conda for python installation. If he does that then maybe have a link to other ways you can create virtual environments. This seems the simplest route.

biophyser commented 6 years ago

Yep, I forgot the index.rst last night. I'll get on that.

biophyser commented 6 years ago

@Zsailer said he's planning on only talking about miniconda to install python so I think I'll just stick with making virtual environments with conda.

lcwheeler commented 6 years ago

Okay, sounds like a plan.

biophyser commented 6 years ago

I'm closing this. The backbone is there we'll just need to revise it ad infinitum.
