 1. In a terminal window, use the command `docker login` with your account credentials. If you don't have an account yet, head over to hub.docker.com to set one up.
 2. Use `docker pull birtwistlelab/sparced-notebook:latest` to download the latest version of the docker image
 3. Once the download is complete, use `docker run -p 8888:8888 --name testnb1 -i -t birtwistlelab/sparced-notebook:latest`, and in your browser, go to the last URL produced in your terminal from this command

 To use custom data in the SPARCED-jupyter workflow, start a container with the commands above, and look at the `input_files` directory. Delete the current files and run `docker cp <datafile> <container-name(e.g. testnb1)>:/app/input_files/<datafile>` to replace them.
