* ''LaTeX authoring'': Some of us work on papers and presentations together in [https://overleaf.com Overleaf]. See additional info about this [[CommunityData:Introduction_to_CDSC_Resources#Creating_Documents_and_Presentations|below]]. You can get a free account to join a project or two and use the basic functionalities of Overleaf. More sustained use of more features probably means you should join the cdsc account or another paid account. We don't have a CDSC overleaf info page (yet). if you think you need to join the CDSC group account, contact Aaron about that. | * ''LaTeX authoring'': Some of us work on papers and presentations together in [https://overleaf.com Overleaf].

Hyak is necessary if you need large amounts of storage (e.g., tens of terabytes) or if you need large amount of computational resources (e.g., CPU time, memory, etc). ''Severs in Hyak do not direct access to the Internet.'' That means that Hyak is not useful for collecting data from APIs, etc. Access requires a UW NetID but they will be sponsored for you. You can learn more about it at: [[CommunityData:Hyak]] which has various links to tutorials/documentation as well. | ||
