# Getting started

This documentation presents an updated overview of available functionality in Prodrisk. Many of the functionalities are presented through examples. Prodrisk supports several input formats as decribed in the [Interacting with Prodrisk](./examples/interacting_prodrisk/overview.md). For new users, the introduction example is recommended before looking into more advanced functionality. To get started coding your own models, you can either use the [vLab](https://vlab.sintef.energy) where pyprodrisk is preinstalled in a Jupyter based environment, or you can [download Prodrisk](https://prodrisk.sintef.energy/files/) from the portal and install [pyprodrisk](https://github.com/sintef-energy/pyprodrisk) on your local computer.


## Launching code with vlab
This documentation contains executable code examples that can be executed on the virtual lab simply by hovering ![](images/rocket.png) in the top right corner and select ![](images/jupyter-hub.png). This will redirect you to the virtual lab. 

You can try it out here and now by clicking the ![](images/jupyter-hub.png) to execute the code below.

```{code-cell} ipython3
:tags: ["remove-output"]
print("Hello Prodrisk!")
```

Happy coding!
