Flesh out installation/getting started instructions #14

Closed FinniganIK closed 2 years ago

FinniganIK commented 2 years ago

Depending on exactly how we want them to do it, we should include details about cloning from github and even jupyter notebook

FinniganIK commented 2 years ago

Sorry, I now see that this is included in 1A. Presumably we're going to put this on the big screen before they've started touching the command line.

Also need to include cloning on their own computers

I can't remember how we did it last year, but I'm keen to avoid github for the students altogether. My thinking is that I will make a clean 2022 release of this as a zip file and put that on blackboard so that the students just have to download that.

I also plan on that "release" having no output in the cells so that the students actually have to interact to see the output.

Ok nice, that sounds good to me

Also the intro_slides.ipynb notebook is what I planned on showing first on the big screen which ends with install instructions and starting the notebook - I think it would be a good idea to have a pdf of instructions though, and a basic "how to open your terminal" thing, But we can discuss this in a bit.
