ANN: Virtual short-form course on using yt the week of April 10, 2023

Hi all, I'm writing to announce that the week of April 10, we'll have a short-form course streamed online on how to use yt. It will be live broadcast through Twitch and later uploaded to YouTube for on-demand viewing. The presentations will be staggered across several different times-of-day to accommodate viewers in different time zones and will initially cover materials drawn from the "yt Quickstart" notebooks, building to an in-depth exploration of a dataset. Each day will include time for Q&A and interactive discussions. The times for the workshop will be: - Monday, April 10: 12:00-14:00 CDT / 17:00-19:00 UTC - Tuesday the 11th: 8:30-10:30 CDT / 13:30-15:30 UTC - Wednesday the 12th, 15:00-17:00 CDT / 20:00-22:00 UTC - Thursday the 13th, 11:00-13:00 CDT / 16:00-18:00 UTC In the days leading up to the workshop I will post here with more information about joining the live stream, as well as a rough breakdown of what topics will be covered on which days. Best, Matt

Hi folks! Due to some scheduling issues I couldn't quite get around, I've had to change the times for the workshop: Wednesday the 12th: 12:00-14:00 CDT / 17:00-19:00 UTC Thursday the 13th: 8:30-10:30 CDT / 13:30-15:30 UTC Friday the 14th: 15:00-17:00 CDT / 20:00-22:00 UTC The format will otherwise be the same, and I'll follow up here with specifics of where it will be broadcast, as well as after-the-fact recordings. -Matt On Tue, Feb 28, 2023 at 8:19 AM Matthew Turk <matthewturk@gmail.com> wrote:

Hi everyone! In 23 or so hours I'll be starting the workshop. We have a channel set up in slack (#workshop-april-2023) and I'll be live at twitch.tv/powersoffour . When the sessions are over, I'll post them to youtube. Tomorrow will be covering the basics of using yt -- installing, getting to know data formats, units, simple analysis and visualization. Thursday will cover more advanced visualization and Friday will talk through how to load in unexpected data, contribute to the codebase, and maybe even writing a frontend. I'll also take time to demonstrate some of the new stuff like interactive volume rendering, jupyter widgets (in the 'widgyts' project) and using yt with napari. -Matt On Thu, Apr 6, 2023 at 1:22 PM Matthew Turk <matthewturk@gmail.com> wrote:
