Welcome!#

Hello everyone and welcome to the “Software containers in neuroscience research” workshop conducted at INSERT_INSTITUTE_LOCATION_HERE, we’re glad to see you here!

Within these pages, we provide information on how to follow the workshop, as well as respective materials. This jupyter book will include the used slides and code in a way that they can be explored in an interactive manner. You can navigate through the respective sections via the TOC on the left side and within sections via the TOC on the right side. The three symbols in the top allow to enable full screen mode, link to the underlying Github repository and allow you to download the contents as a pdf or jupyter notebook respectively. Some sections will additionally have a little rocket in that row which will allow you to interactively rerun certain analyses via cloud computing. Additionally, we support public reviews and comments through an hypothes.is plugin with which you can interact on the right side. All of this awesomeness (talking about the infrastructure and resource) is possible through the dedicated and second to none work of the Jupyter community, specifically, the Executable/Jupyter Book.

Software containers in neuroscience research#

You can checkout the respective sections:

  • An overview

    What’s this workshop about and how is it organized?

  • Setup

    How are things implemented and supposed to work?

  • General outline

    What are the specific topics and aspects taught?

  • Prerequisites

    All things gotta start somewhere and using software containers in neuroscience research are of course no exceptions to that, especially since a certain amount of digital literacy, programming, etc. is required. Here, we gathered some resources folks can check out in preparation for the course or just for fun.

  • Software containers - a super short introduction

  • Installation & Trouble shooting

  • Quickstarting your container expertise

  • Management of software containers

  • Creating software containers

  • Software containers & data

  • Automating software containers

  • Creating your own software container

  • Code of Conduct

    Necessities for creating an open, fair, safe and inclusive learning experience.

I’ve got a question!#

In case you have any questions or difficulties going through the workshop, please don’t hesitate a single second to get in touch with us. A great way to do this is to open an issue on the GitHub site of the Workshop (also possible via the GitHub button at the top of the pages). We would also highly appreciate and value every feedback or idea or you might have (via issues or hypothes.is annotation feature on the right).
