233		-That is the end of this tutorial, in which I've demonstrated how to install PyNN, and other required simulators, in a Linux system. You are now ready to start modeling! To learn about model development in PyNN, do take a look at our next tutorial. Also, we will be releasing a series of tutorials, throughout the rest of 2021 and 2022, to introduce these more advanced features of PyNN, so keep an eye on the EBRAINS website.
