<p><b>New page</b></p><div>Most graphical applications in the [[Portal Overview|Apps Portal]] follow the same pattern: you pick the application, request resources for it, launch it as a job, and then connect to the running session from your browser. This page describes that general flow; the individual application pages give the details for each one.<br />
<br />
== Launching an application ==<br />
<br />
# Open the [[Portal Overview|Apps Portal]] at https://apps.anunna.wur.nl/.<br />
# Choose the application — either from the '''Featured Apps''' speed-dial on the dashboard, or from '''All Applications''' in the navigation bar.<br />
# Fill in the resource allocation form. Most forms let you set the partition, number of CPUs, amount of memory, number of GPUs, the maximum duration, and a comment (your project number, for billing). Request only what you need.<br />
# Click '''Launch'''. This submits a job to the scheduler and takes you to '''My Interactive Sessions'''.<br />
<br />
== Connecting to a running session ==<br />
<br />
On the '''My Interactive Sessions''' page each session appears as a card. When the session is ready, a '''Connect''' button appears (for example "Connect to RStudio Server"), which opens the application in your browser. You can return to this page at any time to reconnect.<br />
<br />
Each card also has a '''Cancel''' button to end the session. A session stops automatically when its requested time runs out.<br />
<br />
== Available applications ==<br />
<br />
Which applications you can use depends on your permissions and project allocations. Commonly used ones include:<br />
<br />
* [[How to Launch a Desktop Session|Linux desktop]] — a full graphical desktop<br />
* [[RStudio]] — the RStudio IDE for R and Python<br />
* [[Jupyter]] — Jupyter notebooks<br />
* [[File Browser]] — manage files in the browser<br />
* [[Shell Access]] — a terminal in the browser<br />
