Details and preparation

The course will take place on May 6, 2025 from 9am to 1pm and 2pm to 5pm (CET, Paris Time).
The online session will be hosted at: https://meet.google.com/rjo-otfx-vez

In order to complete the exercises, it is required to build ParaView and Catalyst before the session. We will use Catalyst version 2.0, see the build instructions : https://catalyst-in-situ.readthedocs.io/en/latest/build_and_install.htmland ParaView version 5.13 Build instructions are available in the source repository here: https://gitlab.kitware.com/paraview/paraview/-/blob/v5.13.3/Documentation/dev/build.md?ref_type=tags.

At the CMake step, one should also activate `PARAVIEW_ENABLE_CATALYST` option and point the install directory of Catalyst (amend the `cmake` line with `-DPARAVIEW_ENABLE_CATALYST=ON -Dcataslyt_DIR=/path/to/install` for instance).

Do not hesitate to reach me before the course in case of issue with the compilation. The slides and exercises will be shared later.
