A session launcher is a component of a project that launches an interactive, browser-based compute Session .

A session launcher contains:

  1. a session Environment, which defines the software installed in the session
  2. a default resource pool (see Resource Pools & Classes), which determines the compute resources available in the session

A project’s session launchers are usable to everyone who can see the project. This means that you can configure a session launcher with an Environment , and everyone in the project can use that session launcher to launch a session with the exact same environment.

However, the sessions you launch are only accessible to you. Sessions are not shared between users.
