YARP-enabled Gitpod workspaces available

[pattacini]

Following up on #458, we have lately streamlined the user experience in dealing with a YARP-enabled workspace in the cloud ☁

We have eventually switched to the use of Gitpod in place of Codenvy (no longer available).

ℹ Gitpod has rich documentation you can peruse online.

You can sign up for Gitpod using your GitHub credentials having 50 hours/month of free usage. Don't forget to tune up how Gitpod can access your GitHub through the Access Control dashboard.

Any time you see the badge below exposed from within one of our repositories, just click on it to get started with the associated Gitpod workspace.

The badge hides the following URL that Gitpod uses to start up the workspace:

• https://gitpod.io/#

To ease this process, you can also install the Gitpod browser extensions.

Eventually, you'll be redirected to an environment that will look like this for the repo vvv-school/assignment_git 🎥

In a nutshell, you can code with absolutely no installation effort directly in the cloud with a full-fledged Ubuntu system that also sports the graphic interface X to run the simulator 🤖 Watch the whole video to know how to achieve that.

▶ Remember that you can easily start/stop Gitpod workspaces at will as described here ⏹

Happy coding ✨
