About
=====
Abipy is an open-source library for the analysis of the results produced by ABINIT (http://www.abinit.org),
an open-source program for the ab-initio calculation of the physical properties of materials
within Density Functional Theory (DFT).
Abipy is written in Python and is designed with the philosophy that you should be able to create
simple plots with just a few commands.
Documentation available at http://pythonhosted.org/abipy/
Check out the the list of plotting scripts available in the
`examples/plot <http://pythonhosted.org/abipy/examples/plot/index.html>`_ directory.
