A modular shared-memory high-performance framework for multiscale cardiac multiphysics.

Warning

This package is under heavy development. Expect regular breaking changes for now. If you are interested in joining development, then either comment an issue you are interested or directly reach out to me via julialang.zulipchat.com, mail or julialang.slack.com. Alternatively open a GitHub discussion if you have something specific in mind.

Questions

If you have questions about Thunderbolt it is suggested to use the #Thunderbolt.jl stream on Zulip.

If you encounter what you think is a bug please report it. A CONTRIBUTING.md will be provided soon with more information.

Installation

To use Thunderbolt you first need to install Julia, see https://julialang.org/ for details. Installing Thunderbolt can then be done from the Pkg REPL; press ] at the julia> promp to enter pkg> mode:

pkg> add Ferrite#b6976d3, https://github.com/termi-official/Thunderbolt.jl#main

Note

The package is under codevelopment with Ferrite.jl, which is why you will need the currently (unreleased) 1.0 version of Ferrite.jl and the (unregistered) Thunderbolt.jl package. Please use these Ferrite.jl docs for Ferrite specific questions.

This will install Thunderbolt and all necessary dependencies. Press backspace to get back to the julia> prompt. (See the documentation for Pkg, Julia's package manager, for more help regarding package installation and project management.)

Finally, to load Thunderbolt, use

using Thunderbolt

You are now all set to start using Thunderbolt!

Accessing the Documentation Offline

To build the docs you first need to install Julia, see https://julialang.org/ for details. Then you need to install the packages. To accomplish this you first start a julia shell in the docs fonder and open the Pkg REPL; i.e. press ] at the julia> promp to enter pkg> mode. Then you activate and instantiate via

(@v1.9) pkg> activate .
(docs) pkg> instantiate

This has to be done only once. Now you can use the provided liveserver to build and open the docs via

$ julia --project=. liveserver.jl

Now you can view the documentation at https://localhost:8000 . All further information will be provided there.
