Use DHRIFT to turn your own workshops into interactive, web-based publications with our markdown style guide. The DHRIFT app supports an interactive code editor, Jupyter lite notebooks, and coding environments for Python, R, and javascript. Alternatively, take one of our workshops and customize it to meet your own teaching style and needs. Find out what it takes to create a DHRIFT workshop.
Cultivate communities of learning and practice by producing your own DHRIFT institute page.
