Once installed, will the Metaflow experience resemble the Sandbox or is that only for demonstration purposes? I’m using Windows 11. I’m beginning to think I’m in over my head with this one…

Hey Olivier, Metaflow doesn’t work out of the box on Windows. Are you using it with WSL?

I followed the instructions to install via Ubuntu and struggled over the last couple of days to complete the set-up. I think everything is good now, but I got errors when trying to run the ‘Hello World’ script in Visual Studio Code. I might have been under the impression I would code in the Outerbounds UI. I’m looking to improve version control and be ready for future scaling, but I’m lost at the moment—lol.

Have you setup the metaflow-service/metaflow-ui already or just running locally? The sandboxes are more of a demo tool to show what hosted Metaflow looks like, but you’d have to set Metaflow UI, Metaflow Service to get that experience, along with Argo/Airflow if you’re planning to use either of those. You can also use AWS Batch or step functions for scaling out to bigger workloads. We have a terraform module here: https://github.com/outerbounds/terraform-aws-metaflow that should help with a Metaflow setup, let us know if you run into any troubles with this!

This is the first I’ve heard of Metaflow Service/UI, so I will look at what you sent me. Thank you!
