Quickstart#

This section provides two quick introductions to Vis-Tools, one running Vis-Tools from within the COMPS system, the other running standalone and doing a visualization of an existing set of sample data that is included in the Vis-Tools distribution. The latter quick start also contains an abbreviated treatment of the preprocessing of simulation data.

Be sure to review the Prerequisites before proceeding.
