The Swiss-army knife of atomic simulations
This section offers tutorials teaching how to use Atomsk, trying to cover basic usage for students, as well as advanced usage for trained scientists. The tutorials are meant to be practical and easy to follow step-by-step, however they do not always give a thorough description of all options or modes used. Please refer to the documentation for a full description of each option.
