Jackie Brown

Worked on the spacetelescope/hst_notebooks repository to streamline environment setup, improve documentation, and enhance tutorial reliability for STIS DrizzlePac and CRDS workflows. Focused on consolidating dependency management and environment variable configuration using Python, Jupyter Notebooks, and Shell scripting, resulting in reduced onboarding time and more reproducible tutorial runs. Addressed compatibility issues by updating dependencies and introducing scripts to ensure consistent environments. Improved documentation by clarifying setup instructions, fixing broken links, and correcting HTML anchors, which enhanced navigation and reference accuracy. These efforts supported a more deterministic, user-friendly notebook experience for researchers and accelerated onboarding for new users.
