May 2020 Update:
The Tutorial material (notebooks and data) is now in a Github Repo which you can clone or download.
It is based on the second rehearsal data set (not the actual challenge data).
All paths are relative in that folder to simplify things, run the notebooks on your local machine immediately
All notebooks are coded in Jupyter Python and require rather standard packages except for the starshade image analysis demo script (SS_Photometry_Tutorial.m) written in MatLab
The hlc_VIP_demo.ipynb - Demo application of the VIP high-contrast image analysis package - is more difficult to get to work, you may want to start with a fresh environment.
A more detailed description on how to use this repo is available in the README.
From the tutorial event we held in October 16-17 2019

OFTI (Orbits For The Impatient) is an orbit-generating algorithm designed specifically to handle data covering short fractions of long-period exoplanets (Blunt et al. 2017). Here we go through steps of using OFTI within orbitize!

We realized that many participants encountered trouble to provide flux ratios in the range we expected them to be: exoplanets in reflected light! To help participants revise their photometry, Neil had come up with this demo.

This demo derives the flux ratios of the same astronomical scenario as with the HLC before, but for the Starshade.
