# Add-ons

With effect from v2022.0.3, pymatgen, pymatgen.analysis, pymatgen.ext and pymatgen.io are now [namespace packages](http://packaging.python.org/guides/packaging-namespace-packages). You may refer to the [contributing page](/contributing). for details on how to write such packages. This page serves as a universal resource page to list known pymatgen add-ons.

It should be noted that the **pymatgen maintainers provide no guarantees whatsoever on the quality or reliability of any of the add-ons** listed here. End users should make their own assessment of the functionality and quality.

Please submit a pull request to update this page when if release a new add-on package.

## Add-ons for Analysis

* [pymatgen-analysis-diffusion](http://pypi.org/project/pymatgen-analysis-diffusion): Provides modules for diffusion analysis, including path determination for NEB calculations, analysis of MD trajectories (RDF, van Hove, Arrhenius plots, etc.). This package is maintained by the Materials Virtual Lab.
* [pymatgen-analysis-defects](https://pypi.org/project/pymatgen-analysis-defects): Provides functionality related to defect analysis. This package is maintained by Jimmy-Xuan Shen, and officially supported by the Materials Project.

## Add-ons for Input/Output

* [pymatgen-io-fleur](http://pypi.org/project/pymatgen-io-fleur): Provides modules for reading and writing files used by the [`fleur`](https://www.flapw.de/rel) DFT code. This package is maintained by the juDFT team.
* [pymatgen-io-openmm](https://github.com/orionarcher/pymatgen-io-openmm): Provides easy IO for performing molecular dynamics on solutions with OpenMM. This package is maintained by Orion Archer Cohen.
* [pymatgen-io-espresso](https://github.com/Griffin-Group/pymatgen-io-espresso): Provides support for the [Quantum ESPRESSO (QE)](https://www.quantum-espresso.org) DFT code. This package was created by [Omar Ashour](https://github.com/oashour) and maintained in the [Griffin Group](https://sineadgriffin.com) repository.
* [pymatgen-io-validation](https://github.com/materialsproject/pymatgen-io-validation/): Provides comprehensive validation of VASP calculations. This package was created by [Matthew Kuner](https://github.com/matthewkuner) and maintained in the Materials Project repository.
* [pymatgen-io-aims](https://gitlab.com/FHI-aims-club/pymatgen-io-aims): Provides support for the [FHI-aims](https://fhi-aims.org/) DFT code. This package is created and maintained by Thomas A. R. Purcell, Andrey Sobol, and the MS1P team.
