(RMG), a tool for automatically generating chemical reaction | ||
## Description | ||
This repository contains the Python version of **Reaction Mechanism Generator (RMG)**, | ||
a tool for automatically generating chemical reaction | ||
mechanisms for modeling reaction systems including pyrolysis, combustion, | ||
atmospheric science, and more. | ||
|
||
It also includes CanTherm, the package for calculating thermodynamics, high-pressure-limit | ||
It also includes **CanTherm**, the package for calculating thermodynamics, high-pressure-limit | ||
rate coefficients, and pressure dependent rate coefficients from quantum chemical calculations. | ||
CanTherm is compatible with a variety of ab initio quantum chemistry software programs, including but not limited to | ||
Gaussian, MOPAC, QChem, and MOLPRO. | ||
|
||
The most official repository can be found on github and is located at https://github.com/ReactionMechanismGenerator/RMG-Py. | ||
Instructions on how to use RMG can be found in the [RMG Documentation](http://ReactionMechanismGenerator.github.io/RMG-Py/) including | ||
details on [how to install RMG-Py](http://ReactionMechanismGenerator.github.io/RMG-Py/users/rmg/installation/index.html) | ||
and its numerous dependencies. The [CanTherm Documentation](http://ReactionMechanismGenerator.github.io/RMG-Py/users/cantherm/) is also available online. | ||
PDF versions of all the documentation can also be found in the documentation folder of the source code. | ||

## Continuous Integration | ||
|
||
We have a continuous integration build test suite | ||
which you can access at https://travis-ci.org/ReactionMechanismGenerator/RMG-Py | ||
The current build status is | ||
