model for life history evolution of age-structured populations under customizable ecological scenarios.\n\n\u003c!-- TODO describe what aegis is for and whom is it for --\u003e\n\n## How to use\n\nYou can run AEGIS simulations on a webserver or locally. The webserver is especially useful if you want to try AEGIS out and run a couple of simple simulations. For more demanding simulations, it is best to install and run AEGIS on your local machine.\n\n### Webserver use\n\nYou can access the AEGIS webserver [here](https://genome.leibniz-fli.de/aegis/). The server is running AEGIS GUI.\n\n### Local use\n\nYou can install AEGIS locally using pip (`pip install aegis-sim`). The package is available on https://pypi.org/project/aegis-sim/. You can use AEGIS with a GUI or in a terminal. GUI is useful for running individual simulations, while the terminal is useful for running batches of simulations.\n\n```bash\naegis gui # starts GUI\naegis sim -c {path/to/config_file} # runs a simulation within a terminal\naegis --help # shows help documentation\n```\n\nTo run simulations within a terminal, you need to prepare config files in [YAML](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/YAML) format\nwhich contain custom values for simulation parameters. The list of parameters, including their descriptions and default values you can find [here](src/aegis/documentation/dynamic/default_parameters.md).\nAn example of a config file:\n\n```yml\nRANDOM_SEED: 42\nSTEPS_PER_SIMULATION: 10000\nAGE_LIMIT: 50\n```\n\n### Developer installation\n\nIf you want to contribute to the codebase, install AEGIS from github:\n\n```bash\npython3 -m pip install -e git+https://github.com/valenzano-lab/aegis.git#egg=aegis-sim\n```\n\n\u003c!-- or\n```bash\ngit clone git@github.com:valenzano-lab/aegis.git\ncd aegis\nmake install_dev\n``` --\u003e\n\nIf you are having installation issues, check that pip is up to date (`python3 -m pip install --upgrade pip`).\n\n### AEGIS GUI\nGraphical user interface for AEGIS can be used on the webserver or with a local installation. It contains sections for launching and analyzing/plotting simulations.\n\n\u003cimg width=\"418\" alt=\"Screenshot_21\" src=\"https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/520bb69c-a1cd-404a-bdf8-a541340e699a\" style=\"border-radius: 10px;\"\u003e\n\n\n## Documentation\n\n### Model description\n\nMost documentation about the model is available within the GUI itself, including description of [inputs](src/aegis/documentation/dynamic/default_parameters.md), [outputs](src/aegis/documentation/dynamic/output_specifications.md), [submodels](src/aegis/documentation/dynamic/submodel_specifications.md) and the [genetic architecture](src/aegis_sim/submodels/genetics/doc.md). Use the [webserver](https://genome.leibniz-fli.de/aegis/) or a local installation to access the GUI.
