This lecture provides hands-on guidance for performing optics calculations related to a simple synchrotron. It walks users through the steps needed to execute these calculations using the xsuite, a software for accelerator simulations. This resource is aimed at students and researchers interested in accelerator physics, particularly in understanding basic concept of resonances, chromatic correction, optimal tune and dynamic aperture.
