Existing Cantera users: If you have Cantera and Jupyter installed on your local machine, simply download any iPython notebook and you should be able to run it.

New Cantera Users: If you don't have an exiting Cantera installation, you can either download and install Cantera or give Cantera a test drive in the cloud. Click on the Binder link below to launch an interactive environment where you can run these examples. For this, there is no installation required.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I use Cantera with Python?

To learn how to use Cantera with Python, click here. For more advanced uses of Cantera, the complete documentation can be found here.

Can I forgo installing Cantera locally and just use Cantera in the cloud every time?

The problem with using Cantera with Binder is that there is no way for you to save your work. You can upload/download files in a session, but once the session is over (you close your browser window), you lose all your work. You thus cannot save your modified iPython notebooks.

I still can't figure something out. Who do I ask?
