Basic prerequisites
Throughout the tutorials we will assume that you have a Conda installation in your machine. If you do not, follow the instructions at this link. You can install Conda on most operative systems: Windows, macOS, and Linux.
We will also assume that you have access to a command line
interface. This is straightforward in Linux and macOS, just
open the terminal app. In Windows, you can install WSL, the
Windows Subsystem for Linux. This will provide you with a Linux
distribution and command line tools. 😎
Lastly, we will assume that you have some familiarity with the
basic terminal functionalities, like cd,
mkdir, ls and so forth. If you don’t, you can
