NESTML is a domain-specific language that supports the specification of neuron models in a precise and concise syntax, based on the syntax of Python. Model equations can either be given as a simple string of mathematical notation or as an algorithm written in the built-in procedural language. The equations are analyzed by the associated toolchain, written in Python, to compute an exact solution if possible or use an appropriate numeric solver otherwise.
Full documentation can be found at:
models - Example neuron models in NESTML format.
pynestml - The source code of the PyNESTML toolchain.
tests - A collection of tests for testing of the toolchain's behavior.
doc - The documentation of the modeling language NESTML as well as processing toolchain PyNESTML.
extras - Miscellaneous development tools, editor syntax highlighting rules, etc.
