We are the https://coderefinery.org project and provide training, such as our workshop on Git, testing, documentation, and collaboration and e-Infrastructure for research software development.
We'll be talking about the CodeRefinery project at @ACM SIG HPC Education chapter webinar tomorrow Thursday 25.4 at 15 CEST: https://sighpceducation.acm.org/events/code_refinery/
Join to hear about our experiences from teaching #FAIR research software development practices, how you can support us and what is in it for you.
Team meeting summary 2024-04-22
We have a couple of new blog posts and will highlight them in separate social media posts.
And we have discussed "the CodeRefinery meeting of the future". Should we make them more topical and move information dissemination to chat and email digest?
We will try it! Next Monday (Apr 29) we will work on planning the next train the trainer event.
"Tuesday Tools and Techniques for HPC" (with @coderefinery people) is starting: it's not a basic course but more advanced cool stories about how we actually use and think about #HPC clusters. As usual, it's a #livestream so anyone can watch: https://scicomp.aalto.fi/training/scip/kickstart-2024/ (and register for interaction) #teaching #SciComp #RSEng #carpentries #CodeRefinery
Many of our partners are also providers of High Performance Computing services.
In April/May we will gather for 4 Tuesdays to explore how #HPC can be used in daily research computing work:

Community call summary 2024-04-08
This was our first community call since some time. We have discussed ideas for an ambassador program where we can send stickers and other goodies to those who promote the project and the workshops.
The weekly chat digest is a success and we are opening it for everybody who wishes to get weekly emails summarizing the community chat: https://postit.csc.fi/sympa/subscribe/coderefinery-team/
We also started a project board on GitHub: https://coderefinery.org/tasks/
Do you want to know more about the CodeRefinery project and how you (or your organization) can get involved?
- Join our community call on Monday April 8th at 14 CEST.
We will present the project and the different roles and tasks we have and leave plenty of time for questions and discussion.
Connection details: https://coderefinery.org/join/meetings/
Do you have questions about applying #RSEng concepts learned in the #CodeRefinery workshop last week to your own work?
-> 'Bring your own code' today or next week's Tuesday at 13-15 CET and discuss with our specialists (zoom link in wrap up email)
Team meeting summary 2024-03-25
We are post-processing the past two #CodeRefinery course weeks and look forward to bring-your-own-code sessions tomorrow and a week after!
We have a new newsletter solution: https://coderefinery.org/about/newsletter/
It's a wrap!
On Thursday we concluded our 9th large online #CodeRefinery workshop.
It seemed our updated #git lesson was well received, which makes the hard work worth it!
Thanks to everyone involved, this would not have been possible without you <3
All materials, recordings, and Q&A will remain available indefinitely (and are suitable for independent study) : https://coderefinery.github.io/2024-03-12-workshop/
Join us for #CodeRefinery day 6 on Thursday: Before lunch we see "Testing" (pytest, Github Actions). After lunch is "modular code development" where you'll see how we slowly transition an ad-hoc analysis in #Jupyter to a reusable script. Both are very practical.
Both are great fun to watch - send your friends: 9:00 CET, https://coderefinery.github.io/2024-03-12-workshop/
The @coderefinery lesson on environments is really cool. Check it out!
https://coderefinery.github.io/reproducible-research/environments/
Discussion-based section "Social Coding" has now started (12 CET): https://twitch.tv/coderefinery
- Why do #SciComp where we can work together?
- Software licensing
- Software citation
- Sharing data
#OpenScience #ReproducibleResearch
Very good interaction during this workshop: our Q&A managers are having to type as fast as we can, and questions are more high-level than the usual technical problems! Focusing on demos seems to have worked. If you register you get the Notes and can ask: https://www.twitch.tv/coderefinery
#CodeRefinery #teaching #Livestream #ReproducibleReserach
CodeRefinery's #ReproducibleResearch day 4 is on #livestream now: the "reproducible research" lesson and after lunch "social coding and software licenses". Week 2 is now demo based so it's easy to come and go as you'd like. #OpenScience #git #AcademicMastodon: https://www.twitch.tv/coderefinery
Team meeting summary 2024-03-18
We discussed lessons learned from the first #CodeRefinery workshop week and what next steps to focus on for the second course week starting tomorrow.
One thing to improve: indicate on course stream even clearer whether we are in a break or exercise session and when the stream will restart.
We fully redesigned our #versioncontrol with #git lesson to be closer to how researchers may come across it during their work.
Read about how the first week of the #CodeRefinery workshop went in our blog:
https://coderefinery.org/blog/2024/03/15/week1-march-workshop-rework/
Today (day 3 of the #CodeRefinery workshop), participants learn how to collaborate with #git by collaboratively working on a recipe book (no coding required!).

Are you a #RStudio user?
Based on requests yesterday in our #git/#ReproducibleResearch workshop, we've added a RStudio path to following along with today's exercises. It's not all there yet but it's a starting point.
As usual, you can still register and attend right now: https://coderefinery.github.io/2024-03-12-workshop/
Team meeting summary 2024-03-11
Our #CodeRefinery workshop starts tomorrow and we are busy ironing out remaining issues and are looking forward to trying out our completely revised lesson material.
You can still sign up, also just for a part: https://coderefinery.github.io/2024-03-12-workshop/
Our upcoming #CodeRefinery workshop (starting tomorrow!) has a really cool feature:
You can now follow most lessons either on the command line, #GitHub web interface, or in #VSCode. We hope this makes the course accessible to a far wider audience (and helps people move between the pathways). More pathways to come later.
