Ongoing project: Integrating cppyy with BioDynaMo
BioDynaMo is an open-source platform for large-scale agent-based simulations, capable of modeling up to billions of biological entities (cells, molecules) in 3D space and while its performance-critical core is written in C++, many researchers and students prefer Python for rapid prototyping, data analysis, and educational use. The project aims to integrate cppyy, an automatic Python-C++ bindings generator, with BioDynaMo. This will enable a hybrid modeling environment where users can call existing C++ agents from Python and also create new agents in Python that inherit directly from C++ base classes. This combines the performance of C++ with the accessibility, flexibility and libraries of Python.
