DOCS: adding/updating a list of external frontends (and extensions)
chrishavlin opened this issue · 3 comments
Based on discussion in #4822 I think it'd be great to add a list of external frontends to the docs somewhere to increase their visibility. Also, it looks like it's time to update https://yt-project.org/extensions.html
In terms of externally packaged frontends, I know of the following:
- yt_aspect, loads ASPECT and general .pvtu files, maintained by myself.
- idefix (the topic of #4822), maintained by @neutrinoceros
In terms of the https://yt-project.org/extensions.html page, I'd propose the following:
- replace
yt interactionandViewYTwithyt_idv - add entry for
yt_napari
If you know of any others (frontends or extensions), if you add them here in the comments and I'll include them in a PR (or you can add them via your own PR if you want). I'll ping the slack and mailing list to solicit more...
https://libyt.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ should be added to extensions too
https://github.com/dnarayanan/powderday (https://ui.adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2021ApJS..252...12N/abstract) : maybe not an "extension" per se, but it relies on yt for its infrastructure so I'd like to include a link somehow.
We could add a section to promote successful users ;)
