[NRE Labs](https://nrelabs.io/) is an open-source project and website for making it easy to learn advanced infrastructure topics like automation. It accomplishes this by using real virtual environments that are provisioned on-demand and presented interactively in your web browser. ![](https://16789369-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-LuZD4MBkEK047OQNKMZ%2F-M-fodcMYywqlyIlT9Wd%2F-M-fpDMh2HNuGZwQ--Ge%2FNRELabs-Large-onBlack.png?alt=media\&token=10804fd4-25ae-49b7-82bd-de3310c66e55) It's powered by the [Antidote](https://github.com/nre-learning/antidote) platform, which provides an abstraction to enable curriculum-as-code, meaning all learning materials can be represented as simple text files, stored in a Git repository.
