BrainPy is a flexible, efficient, and extensible framework for computational neuroscience and brain-inspired computation based on the Just-In-Time (JIT) compilation (built on top of JAX, Taichi, Numba, and others). It provides an integrative ecosystem for brain dynamics programming, including brain dynamics building, simulation, training, analysis, etc.
