Overview

This guide assumes the reader has some basic knowledge of tracking and computing. Notably,

• How to effectively use git and has an eicweb account.
• Some basic shell scripting and python
• How to use ROOT with modern c++ (RDataframes are particularly important)

What this guide is not

• This is not a demonstration of ultimate track reconstruction (nowhere near it).
• This is not an analysis tutorial.

What this guide is

• A summary and overview of the basic framework components.
• A resource for algorithm developers.
• A guide to the development workflow driven by CI/CD.

Data Model

Track finding and fitting is based around using ACTS with the geometry constructed via DD4hep.
