Changelog
Version 4.1.1 - Patch Release!
This patch release includes:
- matplotlib v3.10 support (fixed incompatibility)
- scipy dependency capped at v1.14.1

Documentation
pyDARN's documentation can be found here
Getting Started
pip install pydarn
Or read the installation guide.
If wish to get access to SuperDARN data please read the SuperDARN data access documentation. Please make sure to also read the documentation on citing superDARN and pydarn.
As a quick tutorial on using pydarn to read a non-compressed file:
```python import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import pydarn
read a non-compressed file
fitacf_file = '20190831.C0.cly.fitacf'
pyDARN functions to read a fitacf file
fitacfdata = pydarn.SuperDARNRead(fitacffile).read_fitacf()
pydarn.RTP.plotsummary(fitacfdata, beam_num=2) plt.show() ```
For more information and tutorials on pyDARN please see the tutorial section.
We also have a Jupyter notebook with many examples to support our recent publication.
Getting involved
pyDARN is always looking for testers and developers keen on learning python, github, and/or SuperDARN data visualizations! Here are some ways to get started:
- Testing Pull Request: to determine which pull requests need to be tested right away, filter them by their milestones (v3.0 is currently highest priority).
- Getting involved in projects: if you are looking to help in a specific area, look at pyDARN's projects tab. The project you are interested in will give you information on what is needed to reach completion. This includes things currently in progress, and those awaiting reviews.
- Answer questions: if you want to try your hand at answering some pyDARN questions, or adding to the discussion, look at pyDARN's issues and filter by labels.
- Become a developer: if you want to practice those coding skills and add to the library, look at pyDARN issues and filter by milestone's to see what needs to get done right away.
