genx

genx is an open-source software program for Linux in the Education category. It focuses on fitting work involving models, including applications related to reflectometry and neutron fitting. The software is intended for people learning these methods as well as for users carrying out practical fitting work.

Users can perform fitting through built-in graphical tools or through scripts. Script-based fitting lets users develop models without being limited to the graphical interface. Its modular design supports adding models and plug-ins for different fitting problems.

The documentation includes a manual with examples, a guide to reflectometry, and tutorial material for neutron fitting. These resources help users study the methods represented by the models and learn how models are defined and applied. The combination of predefined models, scripting, and instructional material places genx within scientific education software.

It mirrors the official build directly onto its own storage rather than producing a separate repackaged version.
