Template materials in Python

Example repository to create an environment with course materials in Python.

Try it on Binder

This repository is based on the binder-examples/conda example.

repo2docker is the underlying tool that is used to build an environment from a repository.

repo2docker can be configured with several types of files. In the case of this repo:

binder/environment.yml: specify dependencies that will be installed using conda
binder/apt.txt: specify regular Ubuntu packages that will be installed using apt

Once created, the environment can be reused without building it again.

Materials can be added anywhere to this repository, either at the top level or in subdirectory.

When building the environment, the materials (and any other file) will be copied to the Docker image.

In this example, there is already a test notebook available under example-notebook-python.ipynb.
