Getting Started Tutorials

Welcome! These tutorials should help you get familiar with Simmate -- whether you're new to coding or a python expert.

If anything is unclear, don't hesitate to post a question on our forum.

Expected duration

If you are comfortable with python and the command-line, tutorials 01-05 should take under 1 hour in total. Tutorials 06-09 will take 2-3 hours in total but are optional.

If you are new to coding, we recommend you complete one tutorial per day (1-2 hrs) to fully understand each. This includes exploring extra resources in each tutorial. Keep in mind that tutorials 06-09 are advanced topics but also completely optional.

Tip

Before starting any tutorials, we recommend that you make a GitHub account if you don't have one already. An account is optional but will allow you to post questions on our forum and sign-in to our website. A github account can also be used for optional services like cloud database hosting (covered in a later tutorial).
