- NEST Desktop is a web-based GUI application for NEST Simulator, an advanced simulation tool for the computational neuroscience. The app enables the rapid construction, parametrization, and instrumentation of neuronal network models.
- The Nest app is no exception. Control your Nest Learning Thermostat, arm and disarm your Nest Secure alarm system, see your home with Nest Cam, and know if Nest Protect goes off - all in one place.

An interactive desktop application for the NEural Simulation Tool.
The Nest app lets you set up, control, and check the status of your Nest products. To be able to use the Nest app, your phone, tablet, wearable, TV, or computer needs to meet some minimum.

To configure
A simple configuration handling for your the nest-desktop application.All configuration files are stored in $NESTDESKTOP_DATA/config/.
For the app
The configuration for the app is saved as app.json file.
Database
Nest-desktop stores data of the network in the database but without any simulation results to keep space low.
The database name will be generated in the initialization step. User is able to edit the database name but it should be treated with respect.
Remoted server
If you want to contribute your networks to the server, edit username, password as well as host and port of the remoted database.
Nest simulation server
To edit the host and port if the nest simulation server operates on other computer.
For the window interface with electron
The configuration for the electron is saved as electron.json file.
Window configuration
The application create a window with these window properties - width, height, frame, fullscreen or debug mode.
FAQ (Linux)
Why is the app not working?
First, make sure that you (re)installed all required npm packages (npm install).
If it is still not working, the configuation or database may be deprecated. In this case, delete the all files in $NESTDESKTOP_DATA, then restart the app.
Where are the data of simulation stored?
Data of the simulations are stored as NeDB database in $NESTDESKTOP_DATA/*.db.
Where are the protocols of simulation stored?
Protocols of the simulations are stored as NeDB database in $NESTDESKTOP_DATA/protocols/*.db.
Where are the thumbnails of simulation stored?
Thumbnails of the simulations are stored in $NESTDESKTOP_DATA/images/.
Why is the protocol not working?
Just remove files in $NESTDESKTOP_DATA/protocols/.
How can I update the thumbnails?
Just click the button 'capture screen' or remove image files in $NESTDESKTOP_DATA/images/ and then resimulate.
How can I reload the window?
