Desktop Guides
The Biosimulant desktop app is the local workbench for editing labs, working with local packages, running simulations on your machine, and using the bundled CLI. The simulation engine underneath is the same open-source biosimulant runtime documented under References.
New here? Start with the Desktop App for install, then References > CLI for terminal usage. To extend the desktop app itself with plugins, see Build a Desktop Plugin.
What you can do here
- Work with local models and labs.
- Export and import package artifacts.
- Use the
biosimulantCLI against the same local state as the app. - Install and build desktop plugins.
