The default environment in CoCalc actually does come with GRASS GIS 7.4,
just without GUI. It works fine in the command line and notebooks. You can
use it also from QGIS which is there with GUI, but the experience, at least
with the trial, is not good.

This may not be ideal for the "Try GRASS GIS", unless there are some
additions streamlining the start, but it is hopeful for actually using
GRASS GIS.

Note that you can run CoCalc on your own, but I have not tried that yet
(needs 15 GB just to get started). At least significant part of it is open
source (it is not clear to me if 100%).

It has been a couple of years already that I am dreaming of an open source
system based on some kind of p2p that will permit people to co-share
processing power and disk space for some interactive teaching/studying...

i.e. I would host MOD13Q1 EU related tiles, from 2001 to 2015
somebody else MOD13Q1 EU related tiles, from 2010 to 2019

all "friends" would have access to the data and processing power on both
the PCs, with only a part of CPUs accessible, and instantly revokable
access by a single button click.

Likewise a meta-access to data could be available in teams
pseudo-libraries/APIs...

the more the merrier, of course.

errrh, just dreaming.

Hi Yann,

For courses also: https://cocalc.com/
could be interesting. It does not (yet?) ship GRASS by default though.

Cheers

Cool stuff !
I can see a whole lot of GIS courses becoming streamlined with that...

Of course stuff can always be extended if people feel for it, but it seems to 
be more than good enough to promote it as is. Just my impression from looking 
at the third example in Binder.

Hi Vaclav,

Sounds really cool to me! Great initiative!
Of course stuff can always be extended if people feel for it, but it seems to 
be more than good enough to promote it as is. Just my impression from looking 
at the third example in Binder.

Cheers
Stefan
