The LFPykit module provides electrostatic models in a manner that facilitates forward-model predictions of extracellular potentials and related measures from multicompartment neuron models, but without explicit dependencies on neural simulation software such as NEURON ([[https:~~/~~/neuron.yale.edu>>https://neuron.yale.edu]], [[https:~~/~~/github.com/neuronsimulator/nrn>>https://github.com/neuronsimulator/nrn]]), Arbor ([[https:~~/~~/arbor.readthedocs.io>>https://arbor.readthedocs.io]], [[https:~~/~~/github.com/arbor-sim/arbor>>https://github.com/arbor-sim/arbor]]), and LFPy ([[https:~~/~~/LFPy.readthedocs.io>>https://LFPy.readthedocs.io]], [[https:~~/~~/github.com/LFPy/LFPy>>https://github.com/LFPy/LFPy]])

in a jupyter notebook. Different usage with LFPy, NEURON and Arbor are provided in different notebooks located in the examples directory. Missing packages resulting in ImportError and similar can usually be installed issuing
