Getting started
===============
Getting your hands on NEMO: the first steps are described in detail in the `NEMO users' guide`_ . This explains how to download the code, build the environment, create the executable, and perform a first integration.
If you are already using a previous release of NEMO, please refer to the `Migration Guide`_ which aims to help you to make the move to 4.2.0.

The above users guides cover in detail what is available from gitlab and supported by NEMO System Team. Aside from this web platform, a set of test cases is also available from the `Test case repository`_ . These test cases can be useful for students, outreach, and exploring specific aspects of NEMO with light configurations. The web page also allows you to submit test cases you have developed and want to share with the community. Feel free to contribute!
