Topographica comes with the following step-by-step guides to running simulations:

LISSOM Orientation Map
How to run and test a simple orientation map simulation using the LISSOM cortical model. The tutorial allows you to present various objects to a saved orientation map network, and to visualize and analyze the responses. It also shows how to develop a new simulation using different input patterns.

SOM Retinotopic Map
How to run a model that develops selectivity for position, mapping the input space to the cortical space. The model uses the abstract SOM algorithm, focusing on the basic principles of self-organization rather than modeling any particular biological system.
These should be good starting points for seeing how Topographica works and how to use a Topographica model. If you develop any other tutorials for your own models, we would love to add them here!
