About PySimHub
PySimHub is an open community catalog spanning all Python simulation domains - an awesome list that's also awesome to use. Live data, real exploration, no stale links. Our mission is to help researchers, engineers, and developers discover the best tools for their simulation needs.
Our Vision
The Python ecosystem has an incredible wealth of simulation and numerics libraries, but they're often siloed within specific communities. PySimHub bridges these gaps by creating a unified discovery platform.
We believe that cross-pollination between domains leads to innovation. A roboticist might find inspiration in fluid dynamics tools, while a systems biologist might benefit from discrete-event simulation techniques.
Long-term goal: As our community grows, we aim to host a small conference bringing together Python simulation practitioners from all domains.
Design Philosophy
Tag-Based Exploration
Rather than forcing projects into rigid hierarchical categories, we use flexible tags. A single library might span multiple domains - a robotics simulator could also be relevant for control theory, visualization, and real-time systems. Tags let you discover these cross-domain connections naturally.
Random Default Sorting
We deliberately randomize the default project order. This gives every project - whether it has 50 stars or 50,000 - a fair chance to be discovered. The best tool for your needs isn't always the most popular one; sometimes it's a focused library that does one thing exceptionally well.
Recent Release Highlighting
Projects with releases in the last 30 days get a subtle visual highlight. Active maintenance matters - it signals that bugs get fixed, features get added, and the community is engaged. This helps you find tools that are alive and evolving.
