[AWIPS #IUD-228100]: difficulty installing phython-awips course material

Hi there,

Sorry about the delayed response, we were out of office for most of the 
holidays.

Yes, git (as well as conda and python3) are prerequisites for running 
python-awips, as listed
on our website:
http://unidata.github.io/python-awips/#pre-requisite-software

I'm glad you were able to get git installed.

If you had done the "Source Code with Examples Install" 
(http://unidata.github.io/python-awips/#source-code-with-examples-install)
it will automatically install Jupyter and Jupyter Notebook.

I would highly recommend doing this installation if you haven't, because it 
creates a conda 
environment explicitly for python-awips which won't clutter any other python 
environment you 
might want to use.  In order to do this installation, you'll need to install 
conda though.
(https://docs.conda.io/projects/conda/en/latest/user-guide/install/index.html).

How are you using jupyter notebook (where did you get the prompt about which 
browser)?
Which OS are you using?  Which browser did you end up using by default?
I've only ever run jupyter notebook via the command line, and it has always 
kicked off a 
browser to view and use the notebooks in it.  It also lists a url, which might 
be similar
to the local host one you listed above.  The first url you posted is using 
nbserver, which 
shouldn't be necessary if you're using notebook properly with our examples 
installed locally.

Please let me know if you've tried the "Source Code with Examples Install" 
(http://unidata.github.io/python-awips/#source-code-with-examples-install) 
steps and see if 
that resolves the issues you're seeing?

Thank you!
