Essentially, it&#8217;s a <span style=\"color: #855555;\"><code>.ipynb<\/code><\/span> file that can be downloaded and opened on your local machine using Jupyter Notebook. Conversely, a <span style=\"color: #855555;\"><code>.ipynb<\/code><\/span> file created locally with Jupyter Notebook can be uploaded to Google Drive for editing and execution in Colab, granting access to computational resources like <a href=\"https:\/\/datascientest.com\/en\/harnessing-the-power-of-gpus-in-data-science-what-you-need-to-know\">GPUs<\/a> <sup>[<a href=\"#GPUTPU\">1<\/a>]<\/sup> and <strong>TPUs <\/strong><sup>[<a href=\"#GPUTPU\">2<\/a>]<\/sup>. For remote team collaboration, a Colab notebook can be shared in the same way a Google Docs document can be. Additionally, this notebook can access files saved in Google Drive, which is particularly useful when working with datasets in .csv format.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But how do you share both the notebooks containing your code and the files containing the data? This is where things become a bit more complex. Fortunately, there are several ways to achieve this!<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">During their training at <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/datascientest.com\/en\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">DataScientest<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, our students engage in a capstone project designed to apply the skills they have learned through a practical implementation case. This project is conducted in teams of 2, 3, or 4 members, often dispersed geographically. To efficiently initiate this remote collaborative work, our teaching team conducts a masterclass to lay the groundwork and explore various possible solutions. Each team then receives personalized guidance through regular meetings with their mentor.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In this article, we revisit the essential tips for getting started with Google Colab as a team.
