-# NEST Extension Module Example
-
-`MyModule` is an example extension module (i.e a "plugin") for
-the [http://nest-simulator.org/](NEST Simulator). Extension modules
-allow users to extend the functionality of NEST without messing with
-the source code of NEST itself, thus making pulls from upstream NEST
-easy, while allowing to extend NEST and sharing the extensions with
-other researchers independently.
-
-In order to showcase the possibilites of extension modules and their
-use, `MyModule` contains the following (intentionally simple and more
-or less silly) custom example components:
-
-* A **neuron model** called `pif_psc_alpha`, which implements a
-  *non*-leaky integrate-and-fire model with alpha-function shaped
-  post-synaptic potentials.
-* A **synapse model** called `drop_odd_spike_connection`, which drops
-  all spikes that arrive ao odd-numbered points on the simulation time
-  grid and delivers only those arriving at even-numbered grid points.
-* A **connection builder** called `step_pattern_builder`, which
-  creates step-pattern connectivity between the neurons of a source
-  and a target population.
-* A **recording backend** called `RecordingBackendSocket`, which
-  streams out the data from spike detectors to an external (or local)
-  server via UDP.
-* A **recording backend** called `RecordingBackendSoundClick`, which creates the illusion
-  of a realistic sound from an electrophysiological recording.
-
-In addition to these C++ components, the `sli` directory contains
-custom SLI code for the extension like custom SLI functions, example
-code, or code to initialize the module (which is what the
-`mymodule-init.sli` file is intended for).
-
-## Adapting `MyModule`
-
-If you want to create your own custom extension module using MyModule
-as a start, you have to perform the following steps:
-
-1. Replace all occurences of the strings `MyModule`, `mymodule`
-   and`my` by something more descriptive and appropriate for your
-   module.
-2. Remove the example functionality you don't need.
-3. Adapt the example functionality you do need to your needs.
-
-More detailed information can be found in the NEST Developer Manual.
+# Insite Nest Module
+
+## Usage
+### Docker
+1. Install [Docker](https://www.docker.com).
+2. Build the docker container `docker build -t insite-nest-module .`. This will take a while on the first run.
+3. Run the example simulation `docker run --publish 8000:8000 insite-nest-module <time>` where `<time>` specifies the amount of biological time in milliseconds that should be simulated.
+4. Access the spikes at `http://localhost:8000/spikes`.
