Welcome to yt
We'd love for you to get involved with YT! We have a page about how to get involved as well as guidelines for hacking on the code!

Version 1.7
On June 26, 2010 we released version 1.7. Most prominently, it features "two-point functions" such as structure and correlation functions, a re-engineered volume rendering interface, multivariate volume rendering, off-axis projections, and a mechanism for complex postscript plot layout. Additionally, a major aspect of the drive to 1.7 has been re-engineering the API documentation to be better suited to interactive help (the "help(...)" call in python) as well as the documentation website.
- Direct writing of PNGs
- Multi-band image writing
- Parallel halo merger tree
- Parallel structure function generator
- Image pan and zoom object and display widget
- Parallel volume rendering
- Multivariate volume rendering, allowing for multiple forms of emission and absorption
- Added Camera interface to volume rendering
- Off-axis projection
- Stereo (toe-in) volume rendering
- DualEPS extension for better EPS construction
- Rewritten, memory conservative and speed-improved contour finding algorithm
- Speed improvements to volume rendering
- Preliminary support for the Tiger code
- Lightweight projection loading with projload
- Improvements to yt.data_objects.time_series
- Improvements to yt.extensions.EnzoSimulation?
- Speed improvements to basic HOP
- Better docstrings and documentation
HELP!
If you're having trouble with installation or usage, we actually have a page in the documentation with suggestions on how to ask for help.
