## 2. Our primary software: Libra
### **Libra — actively developed and maintained**
**[Libra](https://github.com/Quantum-Dynamics-Hub/libra-code)** is the Akimov group's primary open-source library for
quantum and classical dynamics, nonadiabatic molecular dynamics, methodology development, and atomistic workflows.
It provides reusable C++ and Python components and interfaces to electronic-structure packages. New users and
contributors should start with the [Libra source repository](https://github.com/Quantum-Dynamics-Hub/libra-code) and
the actively maintained [Libra tutorials](https://github.com/compchem-cybertraining/Tutorials_Libra).
Latest archived release:

### Historical software
* **PYXAID — obsolete and no longer maintained.** This earlier package for nonadiabatic quantum dynamics in atomistic
systems has been superseded by Libra. Its former capabilities and more consistent workflows are available in Libra.
* **PYXAID2 — obsolete and no longer maintained.** Its two-component spinor nonadiabatic-coupling capabilities have
been incorporated into Libra. Use Libra for current work.
