Welcome to AiiDA-VASP’s documentation!

AiiDA-VASP is a plug-in for the workflow management and data provenance tracking framework AiiDA. It provides the classes AiiDA needs to run simulations using VASP (Vienna Ab initio Simulation Package). VASP is a program for atomic scale materials modelling, e.g. electronic structure calculations and quantum-mechanical molecular dynamics, from first principles. For detailed documentation on using VASP take a look in their VASP wiki.

AiiDA-VASP is under active development, check out the changelog.
