Another handy way to make it easier for students to do this course on their own would be to create a docker image of all tools needed.

This could either be a "fat" docker image with all tools specified in a single docker file, or it could be a neatly organized collection of individual docker images. Many of which may already exist. The first approach would be convenient and easy to teach, but the second approach would be a more "correct" (or "best practices") demonstration of containerization, but

This would also ensure that we always have a backup to run a problematic tool when we encounter dependency issues during a course.

I totally agree! This would allow everyone to work offline (and save money since there won't be a need for AWS).

This was created and instructions for its use can be found here:

It does need updating though
