These instructions will guide you through configuring a GitHub Codespaces environment that you can use to do the labs.
1. Click on the button below to start a new codespace from this repository.
Click here ➡️ 
2. Then click on the option to create a new codespace.
This will run for a long time while it gets everything ready.
After the initial startup, it will run a script to setup the python environment and install needed python pieces. This will take several more minutes to run. It will look like this while this is running.
The codespace is ready to use when you see a prompt like the one shown below in its terminal.
3. Open up the labs.md file so you can follow along with the labs. You can either open it in a separate browser instance or open it in the codespace.
Now, you are ready for the labs!
4. (Optional, but recommended) Change your codespace's default timeout from 30 minutes to longer (60 for half-day sessions, 90 for deep dive sessions). To do this, when logged in to GitHub, go to https://github.com/settings/codespaces and scroll down on that page until you see the Default idle timeout section. Adjust the value as desired.
