Instructor Notes

This is the first tutorial in the EIC series and establishes the environment (eic-shell) and collaboration tools (GitHub) that every later tutorial depends on.

Before the session

---

• Ask learners to complete the Setup page in advance: downloading the container can take a long time on systems without /cvmfs (up to ~13 GB), so it should not be done live.
• Confirm learners have a GitHub account and, ideally, membership of the EIC organization.

Timing

---

The lesson is short (~30 minutes of teaching). Most of the wall-clock time is the container download, which learners should have done beforehand.
