For a new client I'm wanting to use Prefect Cloud 2 - is there a way to host the Python scripts on github ? or do I still need to use the VM ? (and this is for a completely new client, no previous Prefect knowledge)

do you have any tips on where to read up on this? I don't mind playing and learning, but it's tricky to know where to go to learn

Thank you 🙂 that feels like a LOT .... more just different than what I'm used to
I was dreaming that I could just write some Python code, push to github and set it up on Prefect but I understand that I need a Docker container etc to make it all work

It is pretty simple, I was new to the whole python and prefect ecosystem a few months ago
yeah prefect cloud doesn't have runners as yet
so you need to bring infra

yeah, so a small Linode VM might be easier (for me) ?

lambda/k8s/docker etc etc
you can run an agent on Linode sure
and run the flows in process

I'll admit (but I hate to admit) that my current code is not in github or version control at all

sorry, I'm switching topics but the existing Linode VM has Prefect Cloud 1 scripts .... built in a RUSH so no version control at all 😞
