Getting started with analysis in ALICE?
Want to know how to build the ALICE software, or how to write an analysis task:
https://alice-doc.github.io/alice-analysis-tutorial/
For Instructions for using GIT:
https://alisw.github.io/git-tutorial/
Want to learn more about our datasets, the Alice DPG has an excellent TWiki page:
https://twiki.cern.ch/twiki/bin/viewauth/ALICE/AliceDPG
Want to learn more about the latest status of data reconstruction, MC productions and calibrations:
https://alice.its.cern.ch/jira/
Want to learn more about track selection cuts and AOD filter bits:
