+Zarr IO
+=======
+
+Zarr is an alternative backend option for NWB files. It is a Python package that
+provides an implementation of chunked, compressed, N-dimensional arrays. Zarr is a good
+option for large datasets because, like HDF5, it is designed to store data on disk and
+only load the data into memory when needed. Zarr is also a good option for parallel
+computing because it supports concurrent reads and writes.
+
+Note that the Zarr native storage formats are optimized for storage in cloud storage
+(e.g., S3). For very large files, Zarr will create many files which can lead to
+issues for traditional file system (that are not cloud object stores) due to limitations
+on the number of files per directory (this affects local disk, GDrive, Dropbox etc.).
+
+Zarr read and write is provided by the :hdmf-zarr:`hdmf-zarr<>` package. First, create an
+an NWBFile using PyNWB.

+# Dataset Configuration
+# ---------------------
+# Like HDF5, Zarr provides options to chunk and compress datasets. To leverage these
+# features, replace all :py:class:`~hdmf.backends.hdf5.h5_utils.H5DataIO` with the analogous
+# :py:class:`~hdmf_zarr.utils.ZarrDataIO`, which takes compressors specified by the
+# :py:mod:`numcodecs` library. For example, here is an example :py:class:`.TimeSeries`
+# where the ``data`` Dataset is compressed with a Blosc-zstd compressor:
+
+from numcodecs import Blosc
+from hdmf_zarr import ZarrDataIO
+
+data_with_zarr_data_io = ZarrDataIO(
+    data=np.random.randn(100, 100),
+    chunks=(10, 10),
+    fillvalue=0,
+    compressor=Blosc(cname='zstd', clevel=3, shuffle=Blosc.SHUFFLE)
+)
+
+#######################################################################################
+# Now add it to the :py:class:`.NWBFile`.
+
+nwbfile.add_acquisition(
+    TimeSeries(
+        name="synthetic_timeseries",
+        data=data_with_zarr_data_io,
+        unit="m",
+        rate=10e3,
+    )
+)
+
+#######################################################################################
+# Writing to Zarr
+# ---------------
+# To write NWB files to Zarr, replace the :py:class:`~pynwb.NWBHDF5IO` with
+# :py:class:`hdmf_zarr.nwb.NWBZarrIO`.
+
+from hdmf_zarr.nwb import NWBZarrIO

+
+path = "zarr_tutorial.nwb.zarr"

+with NWBZarrIO(path=path, mode="w") as io:
+    io.write(nwbfile)
+
+#######################################################################################
+# .. note::
+#   The main reason for using the ``absolute_path`` here is for testing purposes to
+#   ensure links and references work as expected. Otherwise, using the relative path
+#   here instead is fine.

+# Reading from Zarr
+# -----------------
+# To read NWB files from Zarr, replace the :py:class:`~pynwb.NWBHDF5IO` with the analogous
+# :py:class:`hdmf_zarr.nwb.NWBZarrIO`.
