Description
Software applications make choices that balance offering simplicity for novice users with maintaining sufficient flexibility for advanced use cases. SpinWaveGenie, a library of reusable building blocks for performing linear spin wave calculations, derives its customizability from having users write small programs directly calling these classes. In this poster, I will discuss how we have lowered technical barriers that might discourage new users. SpinWaveGenie exports a CMake target, reducing the build script for user code to just a few lines. The recent addition of python bindings improves usability by further simplifying the edit, build, debug cycle. User autonomy is similarly enhanced by integrating SpinWaveGenie with a large ecosystem of open-source scientific software.
This research used resources at the High Flux Isotope Reactor and Spallation Neutron Source, a DOE Office of Science User Facility operated by the Oak Ridge National Laboratory.
