Great for visualizing and optimizing materials

I like that it's easy to use - if you're not using the specific functions of the software (e.g., DFT), then there are plenty of tutorials online that will walk you step by step. It can be slow at times when running large systems, but this isn't always apparent until after you've spent significant time debugging. There have been many occasions where my work could just as easily been done in Excel/Matlab. As mentioned above, one of the best features of MakeAVasp is its simplicity; however…

Pros
  • Flexibility
  • Simplicity for beginners.
  • Easy interface from within Mathematica notebooks without requiring any extra package installation suchas Python etc
Cons
  • There are troubles

MakeAVasp was great for molecular dynamics simulations in which we used it for!

I like that it can be very user friendly when using this software as you are able have multiple users working with one file easily without having issues in terms of compatibility or errors occurring at certain times during use! This product has not been updated since about 2014 so if something changes within newer versions then older ones will stop functioning properly (and vice versa). We used makeAVasp extensively throughout our college research experience; we were required by professors…

Pros
  • All relevant information needed can usually come up quickly while searching online forums related directly towards your inquiry along side other helpful members' experiences / suggestions via search engines provided here most notably stack overflow
Cons
  • I don't really have any dislikes about this, everything is just fine

Great tool especially paired up along side other software

I like that it allows me to see what my code looks like in real time as I make changes so there's less room for error when writing programs. It also helps with debugging by allowing you to step into your own code without having to write out all of the different input variables. In addition, I can use an IDE (like IntelliJ or Eclipse) if needed because VS Code works seamlessly within Visual Studio. Perhaps I'm not using everything available but I am unsure whether this would be helpful or not…

Pros
  • Also has great documentation online including tutorials at http://codeacademy vsceva1k5mzjw4nqg3r8xv2t7dwrf0e6cbfp9i_id1020490560
Cons
  • I will keep silent
