* An account for the CCU.
* Ideally, a desktop PC with an nVidia GPU to test your code before pushing it to the cluster. However, you can develop for and control the cluster on any machine, it's not mandatory that you can actually run the code locally. Note, however, that it makes debugging harder if you cannot do this (you have to do everything on the console).
* Your PC ideally runs a flavor of Linux, all example scripts were tested against Ubuntu 18.04 (should also work on derivatives, such as Mint 19). If you use Windows, you are on your own.
* Admin access to your own PC to install lots of stuff (or a friendly administrator).
* More specific needs will be covered in the in-depth tutorials.
