P4estTypes.jl

P4estTypes.jl provides a Julia type-based interface to the distributed (via MPI) forest-of-octrees library p4est by leveraging P4est.jl (which provides low-level Julia bindings to the p4est API).

Contributing

Contributions are encouraged. In particular only a small part of p4est is currently exposed. If there are additional functions you would like to use, please open an issue or pull request.

Additional examples and documentation improvements are also welcome.
