InternshipTools and first-week setup
The tools a Blockchain & Cloud Computing intern uses and how to set up your workspace in week one.
These are the main tools for Blockchain & Cloud Computing tasks. You do not need all of them on day one; the Level 1 tasks tell you when to install each one.
- Firebase
- AWS / Google Cloud
- Ubuntu Linux
- Windows Server
- Docker
- Solidity
- MetaMask & test networks
- Git & GitHub
Set up your workspace
- Create a free GitHub account if you do not have one, with a professional username, and set up your LinkedIn profile: every task is submitted with a LinkedIn post.
- Create one repository for the internship, for example blockchain-and-cloud-computing-internship, with a README that says who you are and what the repo holds.
- Keep one folder per task, named with the task number and title, so mentors find your work quickly.
- Commit small changes every day with clear messages. Your daily work report uses these commits as proof.
- Never commit passwords, API keys or personal data. Put secrets in a .env file and add it to .gitignore.
