        ndcube is an open-source SunPy affiliated package for manipulating,
        inspecting and visualizing multi-dimensional contiguous and non-contiguous
        coordinate-aware data arrays. It combines data, uncertainties, units, metadata,
        masking, and coordinate transformations into classes with unified slicing and
        generic coordinate transformations and plotting/animation capabilities. It is
        designed to handle data of any number of dimensions and axis types (e.g.
        spatial, temporal, spectral, etc.) whose relationship between the array elements
        and the real world can be described by World Coordinate System (WCS)
        translations. See the `ndcube docs`_ for more details.
        
        Installation
        ------------
        
        ndcube requires Python 3.5+, SunPy 0.8+, astropy and matplotlib.
        
        Stable Version
        ##############
        
        There are two options for installing the stable version of ndcube. The first is
        via the anaconda distribution using the conda-forge channel::
        
           $ conda install --channel conda-forge ndcube
        
        For more information on installing the anaconda distribution, see the
        `anaconda website`_.
        
        To update ndcube do::
        
           $ conda update ndcube
        
        The second option for installing the stable verison of ndcube is via pip::
        
            $ pip install ndcube
        
        Then to update ndcube do::
        
           $ pip install ndcube --upgrade
        
        Development Version
        ###################
        
        The stable version of ndcube will be relatively reliable. However, if you value
        getting the latest updates immediately over reliablility, or want to contribute
        to the development of ndcube, you will need to install the bleeding edge version
        via github. The recommended way to set up your system is to first fork the
        `ndcube github repository`_ to your github account and then clone your forked
        repo to your local machine. This setup has the advantage of being able to push
        any changes you make in local version to your github account. From there you can
        issue pull requests to have your changes merged into the main repo and thus
        shared with other users. You can also set up a remote between your local version
        and the main repo so that you can stay updated with the latest changes to
        ndcube. Let's step through how to do this.
        
        Once you've forked the main `ndcube github repository`_ to your github account,
        create a conda environment on your local machine to hold the ndcube bleeding
        edge version and activate that environment. Type the following into a terminal::
        
            $ conda config --append channels conda-forge
            $ conda create -n ndcube-dev python sunpy hypothesis pytest-mock
            $ source activate ndcube-dev
        
        Next clone the ndcube repo from your github account to a new
        directory.  Let's call it ``ndcude-git``::
        
            $ git clone https://github.com/your-github-name/ndcube.git ndcube-git
        
        To install, change into the new directory and run the install script::
        
            $ cd ndcube-git
            $ pip install -e .
        
        Finally add a remote to the main repo so you can pull the latest
        version::
        
           $ git remote add upstream https://github.com/sunpy/ndcube.git
        
        Then to ensure you stay up-to-date with the latest version of ndcube,
        regularly do::
        
           $ git pull upstream master
        
        To push any changes you make to your github account by doing::
        
           $ git push origin branch-name
        
        where ``branch-name`` is the name of the branch you're working on.  Then
        from your github account you can request your changes to be merged to
        the main repo.  For more information on on git version control,
        github, and issuing pull requests, see `SunPy's version control guide`_.
        
        Getting Help
        ------------
        
        As a SunPy-affiliated package, ndcube relies on the SunPy support
        infrastructure.  To pose questions to ndcube and SunPy developers and
        to get annoucements regarding ndcube and SunPy in general, sign up to
        the
        
        - `SunPy Mailing List`_
        
        To get quicker feedback and chat directly to ndcube and SunPy
        developers check out the
        
        - `SunPy Matrix Channel`_.

        **Imposter syndrome disclaimer**: We want your help. No, really.
        
        There may be a little voice inside your head that is telling you that you're not
        ready to be an open source contributor; that your skills aren't nearly good
        enough to contribute. What could you possibly offer a project like this one?
        
        We assure you - the little voice in your head is wrong. If you can write code at
        all, you can contribute code to open source. Contributing to open source
        projects is a fantastic way to advance one's coding skills. Writing perfect code
        isn't the measure of a good developer (that would disqualify all of us!); it's
        trying to create something, making mistakes, and learning from those
        mistakes. That's how we all improve, and we are happy to help others learn.
        
        Being an open source contributor doesn't just mean writing code, either. You can
        help out by writing documentation, tests, or even giving feedback about the
        project (and yes - that includes giving feedback about the contribution
        process). Some of these contributions may be the most valuable to the project as
        a whole, because you're coming to the project with fresh eyes, so you can see
        the errors and assumptions that seasoned contributors have glossed over.

        `Adrienne Lowe <https://github.com/adriennefriend>`_ for a
        `PyCon talk <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Uj746j9Heo>`_, and was adapted by
        ndcube based on its use in the README file for the
        `MetPy project <https://github.com/Unidata/MetPy>`_.
