Set up your system! CiscoLive Milan Classroom Sessions

[amwhaley]

Hi Everyone!

I am getting so excited about CiscoLive Milan!

I'll be giving the Coding 101 Workshop that I started in San Francisco at CiscoLive US, and I have added a Coding 201 Workshop that covers some more python essentials.  I hope to see you there!  You can see the whole DevNet Zone Schedule here.

Based on requests from CiscoLive US, we have added a DevNet Classroom area in the DevNet zone that we have dedicated to offering more hands-on and workshop type sessions.

For the sessions in the DevNet Classroom, we will have table and power outlets and plenty of room for you to bring your laptop and code along with the class-- and we highly encourage you to dig into the code!

I highly suggest that you install the tools and SDKs required for each hand on session before you arrive at the session.  You might even want to do the installs before you travel to Milan. 

Here are the suggested items to install for each of the Hands-on Session:

For Coding 101,  Coding 201, and the APIC-EM Hello World Sessions

• Log into DevNet
• Click on this link to go directly to the Coding 102: Calling REST APIs from Python Learning Lab
• Click on the "How to setup your own computer" title at the top to expand the BYOD information.
• Follow the instructions to install
  • Python 3.4.2
  • The Requests Library
• You will also need to install Postman for Chrome.

If you have problems installing any of these tools, please reply to this blog.  We will also have many DevNet Staff members in the API Expert and Learning Labs area in the DevNet Zone at Cisco Live Milan who can help you.  Please grab someone in a DevNet Staff T-shirt if you need help!

See you in Milan!
