We will also be making use of the SSH curl command - if you are running MacOS or Linux you can already run this command, but if you are on Windows you will need an SSH client like the one bundled with the GitHub Desktop applicationcan download the git for windows application, which incudes a "git bash" shell containing standard unix commands as well as curl.
Finally, we will also have an opportunity to try out the new import/export utility during the camp. To follow along, please download the executable JAR file. The utility requires Java 8.

Austin is great if you like to be outdoors, and we have many trails for hiking, running, and biking. The hike-and-bike trail around Lady Bird Lake is a favorite (https://www.austintexas.gov/department/ann-and-roy-butler-hike-and-bike-trail). Lady Bird Lake, which is right downtown, is also great for paddleboarding, canoeing, and kayaking: http://do512family.com/2015/07/where-to-rent-kayaks-canoes-sups-on-lady-bird-lake/.
