This repository contains the instructor guide for the *Resilient Technologies* workshop — a 3-hour hands-on training on reproducible Research Data Management (RDM) using long-established command-line tools and Emacs/org-mode. Modern RDM landscapes are dominated by short-lived platforms and proprietary dependencies. In contrast, tools like curl, sed, grep, diff, make, awk, and tar have remained stable, open, and actively maintained for decades. This workshop demonstrates how these *resilient technologies* can be combined into a single, reproducible literate programming workflow — covering the complete research data life cycle from acquisition to archiving. All demos follow one running use case: the NFDI Consortia Collaboration 2025 dataset. Participants download the dataset with curl, clean it with sed, validate it with grep, audit transformations with diff, automate the pipeline with make, analyse it with awk, and archive the results with tar — each step documented as an executable org-babel source block inside a single .org file. The guide introduces the ROOT concept as a quality badge for tools that are Robust, Open, Ongoing, and Time-tested. It is written as a LaTeX document compiled with LuaLaTeX and includes for each tool: instructor tips, key points to convey, flag explanations, and hands-on participant challenges.
