Tutorials

Tutorials are step-by-step demonstrations of how to access and analyze Rubin data products in the Rubin Science Platform. Tutorials are created and maintained by the Rubin Community Science team. They adhere to the standards defined by Rubin's Guidelines for User-Facing Tutorials.

Tutorials are available in multiple formats: Jupyter Notebooks; command-line python tutorials; and instructions for remote access tools (e.g., PyVO, TopCat).

An updated set of tutorials is provided for each new data release.

Data Preview 0

As part of the Rubin Early Science Program, simulated LSST-like data products have been released as Data Preview 0. A growing set of tutorials is available for self-paced learning. These tutorials have been used as the basis for many of the Rubin Science Assemblies (see below), and recorded presentations exist.
