Setup requirements 
Before you arrive on Monday make sure you:
- Have a GitHub account

- Check to see if you have an NCI account by logging in here
- If you do not yet have an account, sign up for an account here
- Note: you should use your work email and will need an NCI project code to use as your default. If possible, this project should be one with compute allocation from your home institution. Let one of the hackathon organizers (Adele, Navid, Julia, Taimoor) know if you aren’t sure which project this should be.
- Join the following NCI projects (see NCI’s instructions for joining projects here):
- Required:
- Required: a project from your home institution that has compute available to use (reach out to hackathon organizers if you are unsure which project to use)
- Optional - join any project with data you are interested in using:
- ct11 (ACCESS NRI Replicated datasets for Model Evaluation)
- p73 (Access Model Output Archive)
- jk72 (Antarctic data)
- dk92 (NCI Data Analysis venv group)
- al33 (ESGF CMIP5 Replicated data)
- rr3 (ESGF CMIP5 Australian data)
- fs38 (ESGF CMIP6 Australian data)
- oi10 (ESGF CMIP6 Replicated data)
- hq89 (CCAM data)

NOTE: do your best to do this step before this Friday, as project approval requests can take over a day to process!
- A terminal you can use with
gitinstalled.- If you are a Linux or Mac user, you should already have git.
- If you are a Windows user, you can either use an ARE Terminal[1] or install WSL. If you use an ARE terminal, we suggest you use
gh authto log in to git. Instructions can be found in step 2 here.
