This release introduces the Getting Started Guide for AnVIL! 🎉
This guide was built from the JHU Data Science Lab bookdown template. It's hosted here: https://jhudatascience.org/AnVIL_Book_Getting_Started/.
FEATURES
- A basic introduction to AnVIL for brand new users.
- Step-by-step instructions for account setup. These instructions are tailored for PIs and lab managers, data analysts, and consortia. Our hope is that this guide makes the account setup painless so that users can work on what they really care about - the science.
- An Introduction to Workspaces on AnVIL - the fundamental unit of the platform.
- Video introductions to Jupyter Notebook, RStudio, and Galaxy on AnVIL. These videos make users feel more comfortable launching these essential computing tools.
- An Introduction to Data on AnVIL - both where they might upload their own and where they can start browsing existing data.
- Additional resources on workflows, FAQs, secure Workspace organization units known as authorization domains, and both IRB and Budget templates. These are resources that might not be applicable to every user, but can be useful depending on how the person plans to use the AnVIL platform.
