PyVista: a community effort to make 3D visualization and analysis more approachable

Our goal is to make 3D visualization and analysis approachable to domain-scientists so they can focus on the research questions at hand.

PyVista is used across science and engineering disciplines. A diverse community use PyVista to visualize data/models in 3D, generate publication-quality illustrations, automate analysis workflows, and build custom applications leveraging PyVista's 3D capabilities.

Join our an open source community - our developers come from a wide breadth of backgrounds ranging from computational geophysics to aeronautical engineering. Our diverse team of developers is what makes PyVista successful and able to be used across disciplines.

New to programming? Welcome! Many of PyVista's users are novice programmers and we've designed PyVista to be intuitive and ready for beginners to get started making compelling visualizations of complex geometries.
