## About

`mag2exp` is a Python package, integrated with Jupyter, providing:

- simulations of experimental techniques perfomed on magnetisation textures,
- the ability to perform "virtual" experiments,
- the functionality to compare of real experimental results agaist simulated experiments.


It is available on Windows, MacOS, and Linux. It requires Python 3.8+.
