The User's guide is targeted towards the end-user of a Virtual Research Environment (VRE) setup using gCube tools. It focuses on the community portals that provide access to the VRE capabilities for content management and collection search/browsing. The guide conceptually comprises of two parts: a common part that describes common functionality offered by any portal, and an application specific part describing the two portals implemented in the context of D4Science for the FARM and ImpECt communities respectively. The guide also includes a chapter on User security describing the basic security concepts and establishes procedures that a user should know and follow in order to access a gCube community portal.
