Here is a good starting point for a .tmux.conf configuration file.

• Python 2 vs Python 3, Loïc Estève (SED). Slides
• Versioning: gitlab.inria.fr, Clémentine Fourrier (SED). Slides
• Visual Studio Code, Simon Legrand (SED). Visual Studio Code (not related to Visual Studio despite the name …) is a cross-platform, open-source and lightweight editor with a very rich ecosystem of plugins. It can be seen as an alternative to Atom or Sublime Text.
• Pijul, Pierre-Étienne Meunier (TAPDANCE). A version control system, quite similar to Git, but well-founded mathematically. Pierre-Étienne Meunier is one of its conceptors. Slides More about it.

• Magit (Git GUI in Emacs) and Tramp (open remote files via SSH in Emacs), Thierry Martinez (SED)
• Docker, Clémentine Fourrier (SED)
• NixOS, Pierre-Étienne Meunier (TAPDANCE). NixOS is a Linux distribution based on Nix, a purely fonctionnal package manager, which means it’s stateless. More about it.
