Additional resources (GPUs)

[ctr26]

Has it been discussed to add a UI option to launch a project with additional resources? Similar to the profile list in JupyterHub.

Not yet! But I think this has been discussed in the context of BinderHub before and this would definitely be a nice addition. But I think it would be nice to work on this upstream, as we could just inherit the changes from BinderHub and enable this with Persistent BinderHub too.

I've put some notes here, I don't think it's impossible to add this functionality in purely by adding some code to the extra config on the deployment and adding some json to the url.

It's coming/viable

Thank you @ctr26 :)
We are currently planning to generalize the functionality of the pBHub in cooperation with 2I2C (#2i2c-org/infrastructure/issues/1382 cc @damianavila) and configurable of resources will be part of this.

The question for me is: What would be an appropriate way to "grant" these additional resources? In any real deployment, we will likely need some form of review or rule associated with additional resource allocations.
