This is a Renku project - basically a git repository with some
bells and whistles. You'll find we have already created some
useful things like data and notebooks directories and
a Dockerfile.
The simplest way to start your project is right from the Renku
platform - just click on the Environments tab and start a new session.
This will start an interactive environment right in your browser.
To work with the project anywhere outside the Renku platform,
click the Settings tab where you will find the
git repo URLs - use git to clone the project on whichever machine you want.
Initially we install a very minimal set of packages to keep the images small.
However, you can add python and conda packages in requirements.txt and
environment.yml, and R packages to install.R (listed as, for example,
install.packages("ggplot2")), to your heart's content. If you need more fine-grained
control over your environment, please see the documentation.
Project options can be found in .renku/renku.ini. In this
project there is currently only one option, which specifies
the default type of environment to open, in this case /rstudio.
Once you feel at home with your project, we recommend that you replace this README file with your own project documentation! Happy data wrangling!
