Installation
These videos document a very basic environment setup for working with FiQuS. First all the needed software is installed and then last video shows how to run a simple FiQuS model.
It is done with Windows 11 and PyCharm. Windows 10 works in the same way. An equivalent setup for Visual Studio Code would also work.

7. FiQuS run
This video shows how to run a FiQuS. The code used in the video is below. Video also shows how to set up Gmsh to open geometry, mesh and result files.
import os
from fiqus import MainFiQuS as mf
magnet_name = 'MQXA'
input_file = os.path.join(os.getcwd(), 'tests', '_inputs', magnet_name, f'{magnet_name}.yaml')
output_folder = os.path.join(os.getcwd(), 'tests', '_outputs', magnet_name)
mf.MainFiQuS(input_file_path=input_file, model_folder=output_folder)
