Quick guide for initial setup of the Folding@Home client

Together. Digital. For a cure.

t this point we would like to give you a guide to set up the Folding@Home clients for the benefit of COVID-19 research to participate in a common, private commitment. You can read the steps to set up the client by using the navigation on the left side of the screen.

Afterwards the program works automatically in the background at every system start and supports the Folding@Home project and our team.

We offer a backend component to determine the team ranking as open source software via our Github repository. With the help of this software every change of a team ranking can be determined and tracked.

This function can be used flexibly as Python in a docker and can be adapted to any team. You can find more information in our Github repository.

In that spirit:

Happy contributing!
