Tutorials
Tutorials walk you through one full workflow end to end: preparing inputs, choosing hardware, submitting the job, and reading the results. They are the fastest way to learn a solver you have not run on Rescale before.
Tutorials live in the Rescale Help Center, not here. That is deliberate. Tutorials track solver versions, licence arrangements and UI details that change often, and the Help Center is where they are maintained. This page explains how to choose one and points at good starting points.
Tutorials, documentation, and examples
Three different things, and it is worth knowing which you want:
- This documentation explains how a Rescale capability works and why, so it stays true across solvers. Start here for concepts: how a job runs, choosing hardware, licensing.
- Tutorials in the Help Center take one solver and one scenario from start to finish, with the exact commands and settings.
- Clonable examples are pre-configured jobs you import into your own account and modify, when you would rather start from something that already runs than read a walkthrough.
You do not have to choose between the last two. Most Help Center tutorials include an Import Job Setup link, so they double as clonable examples: read the walkthrough, or skip it and import the job.
