This is the class documentation for the Ikarus module. This project tries to provide an easy-to-read and an easy-to-use finite element framework. It is heavily inspired by the finite element software DUNE, the book DUNE — The Distributed and Unified Numerics Environment, deal.II and Kratos. Furthermore, it directly uses several modules from DUNE.
The best way to start is from the page Modules which gives you access to the documentation by category.
