conda cheatsheet

[samumantha]

Originally discussed with @bast (please add or clarify if I forgot something)

It would be great to have some kind of cheatsheet for the workshop with short explanations, including:

• all commands used,
• possible useful options for some commands
• environment.yml sections
• other useful commands related to conda, such as which python (unix)/ where python(windows)
• ...

This would be a great resource.

There is an official cheatsheet...

https://docs.conda.io/projects/conda/en/latest/user-guide/cheatsheet.html

...as well as many other cheatsheets available via Google.

Do we want to make our own or link to an existing cheatsheet?

[samumantha]

I'd create an own specifically for supporting the workshop, set up similar as the material, to easily follow along during workshop.
It could be a 'lesson' in the material similar to the setup page?

[samumantha]

I'd be happy to do this, but would need some guidance on how to add a page

[davidrpugh]

@samumantha I think something like a Setup page would be ideal for this. I am not sure how to add such a page to the lesson template though.

@naoe-tatara suggested to use the reference.md (similar to https://librarycarpentry.org/lc-shell/reference.html )
This looks like a good solution to me.
What do you think?

[davidrpugh]

Looks great to me! Do you just create a reference.md file in the repo root and the. It will be picked up by the template engine when the website is built?

There is already a reference.md in the template. I would guess that it would need to be actively added to the timetable page as a link, but do not know.
Will find out!
