Running k mer tools in GitPod - KamilSJaron/k-mer-approaches-for-biodiversity-genomics GitHub Wiki

GitPod is a cloud service you can use with just a GitHub account. If you have one, you can just click on the following link: https://gitpod.io/new/#https://github.com/KamilSJaron/kmerpod

This will take you to GitPod webpage, where you will need to log on and then start the environment by clicking on the black "Continue" button

When the environment opens, you need to wait for ~5 minutes for the GitPod to setup everything for you. You can see the progress if you clock on the "mamba install" terminal tab on the right panel with terminal sessions

Or you can simply wait to get a terminal prompt.

How it actually works

This environment is setup in the following repository: https://github.com/KamilSJaron/kmerpod, specifically in a yaml file that lists the series of commands that will be executed in a vanilla Linux environment to set you up the environment. This might be useful if you would like to make yourself a similar environment yourself outside of the cloud environment.
