The first yt workshop is in just about a week. We’ve updated the website with the current list of talks, along with information about getting to and from the workshop from the conference hotel, and information about how to get the sample data. Keep your eyes on the website in the lead up to the workshop, as we’ll be posting a script for fisheye lens renderings for our viz night at the Adler, information about the talks and example scripts, and other useful info. Once the workshop is over we’ll update with links to the full videos of the talks, the slides, and scripts.
Workshop in just a week!@

yt extension modules
yt has many extension packages to help you in your scientific workflow! Check these out, or create your own.
ytini
ytini is set of tools and tutorials for using yt as a tool inside the 3D visual effects software Houdini or a data pre-processor externally to Houdini.
Trident
Trident is a full-featured tool that projects arbitrary sightlines through astrophysical hydrodynamics simulations for generating mock spectral observations of the IGM and CGM.
pyXSIM
pyXSIM is a Python package for simulating X-ray observations from astrophysical sources.
ytree
Analyze merger tree data from multiple sources. It’s yt for merger trees!
yt_idv
yt_idv is a package for interactive volume rendering with yt! It provides interactive visualization using OpenGL for datasets loaded in yt. It is written to provide both scripting and interactive access.
widgyts
widgyts is a jupyter widgets extension for yt, backed by rust/webassembly to allow for browser-based, interactive exploration of data from yt.
yt_astro_analysis
yt_astro_analysis is the yt extension package for astrophysical analysis.
Make your own!!
Finally, check out our development docs on writing your own yt extensions!

We welcome contributions from all members of the yt community. Feel free to reach out if you need any help.
the yt data hub
The yt hub at https://girder.hub.yt/ has a ton of resources to check out, whether you have yt installed or not.
The collections host all sorts of data that can be loaded with yt. Some have been used in publications, and others are used as sample frontend data for yt. Maybe there’s data from your simulation software?
The rafts host the yt quickstart notebooks, where you can interact with yt in the browser, without needing to install it locally. Check out some of the other rafts too, like the widgyts release notebooks – a demo of the widgyts yt extension pacakge; or the notebooks from the CCA workshop – a user’s workshop on using yt.
