24 +The tutorial is composed of three parts in which the user learns to simulate with NEST step by step.

33 +=== 1) NEST Desktop ===
34 +
35 +The first part of the tutorial, we look at NEST Desktop.  As a goal we will create and analyze a balanced two-population network.

39 +
40 +=== 2) NEST Simulator ===
41 +
42 +The tutorial will then turn to Jupyter (Python) notebooks where we will start by creating spiking neurons. Here, we learn advanced steps to write code with NEST Simulation syntax. The scripting codes allow us to customize sophisticated use cases with NEST simulations. How to run examples on EBRAINS lab can be found here:

45 +
46 +=== 3) NESTML ===
47 +
48 +The last part is using NESTML to create custom neuron and synapse models for NEST Simulator. This will be done by formulating the learning model in the NESTML language syntax, and using the associated toolchain to generate code for NEST Simulator.
