@gnilrets this is awesome. I’m glad to see others working in the same problem space. Our team is growing quickly and dev env set up is probably our largest impediment right now?
Follow up question:
Would you recommend this process for all new team members?
I ask because this solution seems to ensure a stable environment at the expense of initial set up and overall complexity. Is a stable environment what you see new users struggle with the most. Does this solution assume that the new team members are already familiar with anaconda environments?
Even teaching anaconda to someone with only Data Viz and SQL experience is quite a heavy lift already. It was validating too see @aescay’s post last week rationalizing virtualenv over conda envs:
Please don’t read this as critical, I’m just struggling a lot with happy path to ohelping new team members get set up right now. Perhaps we can set up a working group for figuring this out!
