Participating AiiDA plugin developers will be shown best practices and useful tips on:
- code development practices (automated testing, continuous integration, code style checks, packaging, distribution …)
- writing reusable, robust and modular workflows
- taking full advantage of the AiiDA v1.0 API
In addition, during the event we will discuss and define common APIs for workflows for the computation of certain materials properties.
When adopted by plugin developers, these common APIs enable AiiDA users to compute a material's property using different codes without the need to know the interface of each plugin in detail.
Target audience
Computational scientists that actively develop/maintain one or more AiiDA plugins (registered on the AiiDA plugin registry) in order to automate calculations with AiiDA.
Prerequisites
Being a developer or maintainer of at least one plugin package registered on the AiiDA registry
