Workshops as code
Running workshops is easier and more productive with Gitpod. The platform allows for automation of prerequisite activities, ensuring attendees can focus on learning the content being taught. By converting workshops to Docker images, they become repeatable and reproducible, reducing the need for complex setup processes. DataStax has integrated their cloud-native database-as-a-service product offering with Gitpod, while Pulumi uses Gitpod for their instructor-led workshops. The integration of workshops as code can be done by supplying a Dockerfile and specifying the commands to execute in a Git repository hosted on platforms like GitHub, GitLab or BitBucket.
