18.10 Workstation
Work-in-progress
This page is currently under development.
The setup for a typical workstation includes the following:
- An Ubuntu Operating System
- Setup on a notebook (PhD students)
- Setup on an external hard drive (student assistants), together with a QR-code linking to a video on how to use the “system”
The following apps are pre-installed based on a shell script:
- First-steps file (on desktop), covering git config, ssh, gpg, github account, and a link to the handbook (onboarding section)
