Getting Started

Run the Demo

The notebook notebooks/quickstart/full_flow.ipynb contains a complete example of the RDS workflow from both the Data Owner (DO) and Data Scientist (DS) perspectives.

This demo uses a mock in-memory stack that simulates SyftBox functionality locally - no external services required.

To run the demo:

just jupyter

Then open notebooks/quickstart/full_flow.ipynb and run through the cells.

The demo covers a basic remote data science workflow:

1. Data Owner creates a dataset with private and mock (public) data
2. Data Scientist explores available datasets (can only see mock data)
3. Data Scientist submits code to run on private data
4. Data Owner reviews and runs the code on private data
5. Data Owner shares the results
6. Data Scientist views the output
