How to read this documentation#

The documentation is organized around a number of short vignettes. We recommend that new users start there, and read them in order.

Longer-form pages follow the vignettes. These contain more in the way of technical details that are probably best skipped upon a first reading of this manual.

Many of the vignettes contain executable code. You may download any of these chapters as Jupyter notebooks and work with them locally. Doing so requires that fwdpy11 is installed on your system.
