Tutorials

Element Z-stack includes an interactive tutorial on GitHub Codespaces, which is configured for users to run the pipeline.
DataJoint Elements are modular and can be connected into a complete pipeline. In the interactive tutorial are example Jupyter notebooks that combine five DataJoint Elements - Lab, Animal, Session, Event, and Calcium Imaging. The notebooks describe the pipeline and provide instructions for running the pipeline. For convenience, these notebooks are also rendered on this website:
- Tutorial notebook
- Quality metrics notebook

Installation Instructions for Active Projects

The Element Z-stack described above can be modified for a user's specific experimental requirements and thereby used in active projects.
The GitHub Codespace and Dev Container is configured for tutorials and prototyping.
We recommend users to configure a database specifically for production pipelines. Instructions for a local installation of the integrated development environment with a database can be found on the User Guide page.
