sisl: Toolbox for electronic structure calculations

The Python library sisl was born out of a need to handle (create and read), manipulate and analyse output from DFT programs. It was initially developed by Nick Papior (co-developer of Siesta) as a side-project to TranSiesta and TBtrans to efficiently analyse TBtrans output for N-electrode calculations.

Since then it has expanded to accommodate a rich set of DFT code input/outputs.
