   https://github.com/obidam/ds2-2025/blob/main/practice/environment/coiled/environment-coiled-pinned-binder.yml
 
-- Note that if you're running on Windows, you must be working with this environment: 
+- Install and activate this Python 3.11 environment with a package manager like miniconda:  
+```bash
+miniconda env create -f environment-coiled-pinned-binder.yml

+- Finally, since the google-cloud-sdk library is not available with a package manager, it must be installed manually, and you need to install the specific release 502 from:
+  https://storage.googleapis.com/cloud-sdk-release/google-cloud-cli-502.0.0-windows-x86_64.zip
+
+- Note that we won't actually use the Google Cloud SDK from the notebooks, but it is required by Coiled to setup the Dask cluster on the Google Cloud Perform. So, you don't need to configure the SDK with ``gcloud init``.
+
+### Connect to Coiled
+
+- You now need to connect to your Coiled account with the appropriate workspace:
 ```bash
 coiled login --workspace class-2025
 ```
