✨ New Frameworks and Platforms for Training Material ✨
🚀 The big goal!
Training in software and computing is an essential ingredient for the success of any HEP experiment. As most experiments have similar basic prerequisites we want to join our efforts and create one introductory software training curriculum that serves HEP newcomers from all experiments. This curriculum is made up of independent training modules and should contain all software skills needed as they enter the field while instilling best practices for writing sustainable software.
We have started this work here and have completed and tested several of our modules to great success.
📍So what will happen at this hackathon?
This time, we will spend more time on discussion than on hacking. We will take a look at different technical frameworks, including the new Carpentry framework and Jupyter book that could be used as framework for our material. We also discuss how to deal with the reduced compute power of the Binder platform and whether starting Jupyter notebooks in GitHub codespaces can be a viable alternative.
🤗 Recognition!
We want to make your contribution visible. If you make non-trivial contributions to the HSF Training mission (e.g. work on something during the hackathon), you can add your profile to the HSF Training Community. You can then also add your avatar to the list of contributors that you saw on the front page of the training module.
