Prepare your code for containerization¶

Outlined above are the proposed paths that you can take to get your algorithm on our platform. As you can see, the first step toward deploying your algorithm is to prepare a code base that Docker can use to build a container.

The options are:

1. Cloning a repository from a Challenge baseline Algorithm – choose this if you are participating in a challenge. This method might not require a local installation of Docker.

2. Creating an algorithm from an Algorithm Template – choose this method if you are solely creating an algorithm on our platform and want some quick examples. The examples contain a tailored template that already shows how to easily read and write your output, including some basic helper scripts for Docker containerisation. This method requires a local installation of Docker.
