 `BrainPy`_ is a highly flexible and extensible framework targeting on the
 general-purpose Brain Dynamics Programming (BDP). Among its key ingredients, BrainPy supports:
 
-- **JIT compilation** and **automatic differentiation** for class objects.
-- **Numerical methods** for ordinary differential equations (ODEs),
-  stochastic differential equations (SDEs),
-  delay differential equations (DDEs),
-  fractional differential equations (FDEs), etc.
-- **Dynamics building** with the modular and composable programming interface.
-- **Dynamics simulation** for various brain objects with parallel supports.
-- **Dynamics training** with various machine learning algorithms,
-  like FORCE learning, ridge regression, back-propagation, etc.
-- **Dynamics analysis** for low- and high-dimensional systems, including
-  phase plane analysis, bifurcation analysis, linearization analysis,
-  and fixed/slow point finding.
-- And more others ......
