Based on a slack discussion, I’ve put together a small package: JuliaCon2020Workshops.jl, that pulls the workshop repos and starts a jupyter notebook. It may help beginners to easily start working (just install julia and this package).
I would appreciate your thoughts and feedback on the package, and if it could be useful.
Quoting from the readme:
Usage
Print the available workshops:
using JuliaCon2020Workshops
showworkshops()
The following workshops can be downloaded (by their shortname):
shortname: Workshop name
MLJ: MLJ: A Machine Learning Toolbox for Julia
LightGraphs: Building and analyzing Graphs at scale with Light Graphs
DataFrames: A Deep Dive into DataFrames.jl Indexing
LearnJulia: Learn Julia via Epidemic Modeling
CxxWrap: Wrapping a C++ Library with CxxWrap.jl
Then download the selected, with its shortened name:
getworkshop("MLJ")
You can start the jupyter notebooks for any downloaded workshop:
initworkshop("MLJ")
Note: I know that not all workshops use notebooks, I’ve just put those into the package that I found.
