Thetis meeting agenda 2020 10 30
Date/time of meeting 2020-10-30 11:00 UTC (11:00 BST)
David, Matt, Lawrence, Stephan, Than, Simon
We need better tutorials for students to get started with Thetis. Basically there are two options: static webpages with code blocks or interactive Jupyter notebooks. The latter requires access to computing resources so it's not so easy to set up. For static tutorials/documentation we could use either Sphinx, as we currently do on the Thetis website, or Jupyter books. For static content they are very similar. It was decided that we'll start to add more demos and tutorials to the existing website and revisit the interactive option at a later stage. Would be good to include examples of certain operations and mesh generation in addition to full model examples. Tuomas will create an issue on Github where we can list ideas for missing tutorials.
Examples of Jupyter-based documentation:
- ESE teaching material: https://primer-computational-mathematics.github.io/book/intro.html
- Devito Book: https://www.devitoproject.org/devito_book/
Wei has added a PR on non-hydrostatic 2D solver. Stephan has been commenting. Broadly looks OK, Stephan and Tuomas will review further.
