General instructions:

For the hands-on sessions, you shall use your own computer. If you have the choice, prefer bringing a Windows machine since one hands-on session requires this specific platform. In order to have a similar environment, we shall use conda in most hands-on sessions. Please install conda on your machine or ask your IT-support. See https://www.anaconda.com.

Please follow the installation instructions of each hand-on session before the beginning of the workshop. Some require admin rights. Help may be provided on-site or you can ask your questions in the dedicated help-desk Slack channel.
