Write a 'getting started with Jetstream cloud' tutorial

[afgane]

The Jetstream2 cloud is an OpenStack, NSF-funded academic cloud operated by the Indiana University. They teach cloud computing concepts all over the country and have a great tutorial for the OpenStack command line client. It would be great to write an equivalent one using CloudBridge and Python.

Link to the Jetstream2 CLI tutorial: https://docs.jetstream-cloud.org/ui/cli/overview/

For CollabFest students who might want to work on this issue, you'll need an OpenStack environment and will thus need to contact me to get you started with credentials! A good place to start afterwards is setting up a virtualenv with iPython, then following this getting started tutorial to get to know CloudBridge: https://cloudbridge.readthedocs.io/en/latest/getting_started.html after which you'd want to read the OpenStack tutorial linked by Enis above and write a Python script accomplishing the same operations as the tutorial using CloudBridge. Please let me know if you need any help!

Hey @almahmoud I would like to work on this issue.

Hi @ananyak19 - thanks for your interest here. In addition to what @almahmoud pointed out already, take a look at the contributing guide available here: https://cloudbridge.cloudve.org/en/latest/topics/contributor_guide.html. I'd suggest you start by forking and cloning this repo. Then reach out to me on Galaxy project's Matrix space: https://matrix.to/#/#galaxyproject_FederatedGalaxy:gitter.im and we can see about setting you up with necessary access.

Hi @afgane , This issue seems to be a good initiation of my journey towards contribution to FOSS projects. Can you please assign this to me?
