# DynaSim [](https://gitter.im/DynaSim/DynaSim?utm_source=badge&utm_medium=badge&utm_campaign=pr-badge&utm_content=badge) This is the home of the DynaSim toolbox for modeling and simulating dynamical systems in MATLAB and GNU Octave! ### Quick Install: * Full instructions are [online](https://github.com/DynaSim/DynaSim/wiki/Installation). * In brief: 1. Download the toolbox, and add it to your MATLAB or GNU Octave path. * Download it as a [Zip file](https://github.com/DynaSim/DynaSim/archive/master.zip) or clone it from the Terminal: `git clone https://github.com/DynaSim/DynaSim.git` 2. Add to path using startup.m or Command Window: * `addpath(genpath('YOUR/PATH/TO/DynaSim'))` ### Documentation: - Complete documentation is [available online](https://dynasim.github.io/docs). - Get started with the [DynaSim tutorial](https://github.com/DynaSim/DynaSim/wiki/DynaSim-Getting-Started-Tutorial). - A browsable function reference is [available here](https://dynasim.github.io/docs/function_reference). ### Citation If you use DynaSim for your published research, please cite this introductory article: Sherfey JS, Soplata AE, Ardid S, Roberts EA, Stanley DA, Pittman-Polletta BR and Kopell NJ (2018) [DynaSim: A MATLAB Toolbox for Neural Modeling and Simulation](https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fninf.2018.00010/full). *Front.
