Some useful tutorials for my classes where the preferred platforms for application development are MacOS X and the Ubuntu distribution of Linux. Windows 10 may present significant compatibility challenges.

• InstallUbuntuWindows.pdf
  Install the Ubuntu distribution of Linux directly on Windows 10 using Windows Subsystem for Linux. You will also need to install X Windows in order to run GUI (graphical user interface) applications.
  
  
• InstallUbuntuVirtualBox.pdf
  First install VirtualBox on Windows 10 or on macOS. Then install the Ubuntu distribution of Linux and run it in a virtual machine managed by VirtualBox.
  
  
• InstallBashForMacOS.pdf
  Install bash on macOS and make it the default command language and interpreter ("shell").
  
  
• ConfigureUbuntu.pdf
  Configure Ubuntu for software development by manually installing gcc, g++, and make.
  
  
• InstallEclipse.pdf
  Install the Eclipse IDE (integrated development environment) for Java and C++ software development.
  
  
• InstallMPIR.pdf
  Install MPIR (Multiple Precision Integers and Rationals) on the Ubuntu distribution of Linux or on MacOS X.
  
  
• InstallwxWidgets.pdf
  Install wxWidgets on the MacOS X or the Ubuntu platform to build and deploy interactive GUI applications written in C++.
  
  
• InstallANTLR4.pdf
  Install the ANTLR 4 compiler-compiler on the Ubuntu or the MacOS platform. Given a grammar, ANTLR 4 by default generates parsers, lexers (scanners), and parse tree routines written in Java. An ANTLR 4 plugin for Eclipse allows us to use ANTLR under control of the IDE and to generate syntax diagrams and parse tree diagrams.
  
  
• InstallANTLR4Cpp.pdf
  Modify the default installations of ANTLR 4 and its Eclipse plugin to generate compiler components written in C++.
  
  
• MySQLShell.pdf
  A short tutorial on how to install and use MySQL Shell.
  
  
• MySQLWorkbench.pdf
  A short tutorial on how to install and use MySQL Workbench.
