17 +* This page serves as a central information hub presenting the work done in the SC3 Visualization Framework Use Case.
18 +* In this use case, a connection between NEST Desktop, ViSimpl and Insite was realized.
19 +* The setup guides can be found in the user guides of NEST Desktop and ViSimpl:
20 +** ViSimpl [[https:~~/~~/visimpl-documentation.readthedocs.io/en/latest/06-NestInsite.html>>url:https://visimpl-documentation.readthedocs.io/en/latest/06-NestInsite.html]]

38 +
39 +First, download the Docker Compose configuration file for NEST Desktop and Insite.
40 +
41 +{{{wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nest-desktop/nest-desktop-docker/main/examples/insite/docker-compose.yml
42 +}}}
43 +
44 +Then, pull the docker images using Docker Compose.
45 +
46 +{{{docker-compose pull
47 +}}}
48 +
49 +Afterwards, you can start NEST Desktop (with Insite).
50 +
51 +{{{docker-compose up}}}
52 +
53 +----
54 +
55 +For ViSimpl, download the (binary) AppImage from the [[page>>url:https://vg-lab.es/visimpl/#downloads]], make it executable and then open it.
56 +
57 +{{{VERSION=1.8.3
58 +wget https://vg-lab.es/apps/visimpl/latest-release/visimpl-$VERSION-x86_64.AppImage

64 += How to use NEST Desktop with ViSimpl (Overview) =
65 +
66 +1. In NEST Desktop, make sure that both backends (NEST Simulator and Insite) are running.
67 +1. Run the simulation of the network with Insite as recording backend.
68 +1. In ViSimpl, click on the REST button to get data from Insite (check that you use the correct URL).
69 +1. Now, ViSimpl shows spatial dots representing neurons and spikes are displayed in glowing mode.
