This guide explains how to use optmat’s properties, how its models are constructed, and what supports their predictions. If you have not used the package, start with the Functionality overview and Quick start.

For a first reading, follow the chapters below. Foundations establishes the shared conventions and the record of which model a calculation uses. The following chapters develop each response and its validation; the final chapter brings the interfaces together for a propagation code.

For a particular calculation, enter at the relevant response. Each chapter links to the starting example, detailed models, and reference interfaces. The data explains how to inspect their evidence.
