NOAA Fisheries Integrated Modeling System

Version 0.6.3

Welcome to the Fisheries Integrated Modeling System (FIMS) community playbook, your source of information for all members of the FIMS community--developers, users, and receivers of stock assessments. We welcome both those that are new and seasoned to the field to join us as we work to fulfill our mission!

We use the following icons to help each type of community member find relevant information quickly within this playbook:
Developer
An active developer of FIMS that is wanting information on how to change the codebase or update the documentation.
New User
Someone who wants to use FIMS but is uncertain how to start or is more comfortable using the wrapper functions in R rather than specifying the model line by line with lists.
Power User
A repeat user of FIMS who wants to dig into the source code to see how it is connected to R or someone who wants more control of their model than what the wrapper functions in R provide.
Receiver of Results
Typically a manager or stakeholder who has a desire to explore the model output without wanting to use FIMS themselves.
