Installation

Over here we will cover the basic steps to get the server and client side running.

Install Go lang

The entire the implementation of this project is done using Go lang. Thus, we need go lang to compile to code to a binary file. Instructions to install Go lang

Install Docker

In this project the choice of virtualization is Docker due to it's wide usage in the developer community. In the server module we use the Docker Go API to create and interact with the containers.

Instructions to install docker Instructions to install docker GPU

Do ensure that the docker command does not need sudo to run
