## About

**ramannoodle** is a Python API that helps you calculate Raman spectra from first-principles calculations.

> [!NOTE]
>  **ramannoodle is currently in alpha.**

ramannoodle is built from the ground up with the goals of being:

1. **EFFICIENT**

   ramannoodle provides `PolarizabilityModel`'s to reduce the required number of first-principles polarizability calculations.

2. **FLEXIBLE**

    ramannoodle provides a simple, object-oriented API that makes calculations a breeze while offering plenty of flexibility to carry out advanced analyses and add new functionality.

3. **TRANSPARENT**

    ramannoodle is designed according to the philosophy that the user should understand *exactly* what is being calculated, without hidden corrections or assumptions.

**ramannoodle interfaces with...**

* VASP (currently under development)
* phonopy (planned)

## Installation

ramannoodle can be installed via pip:

`
pip install ramannoodle
`

## Roadmap

Current release: v0.1.1-alpha

Future releases:


**v.0.1.2-alpha**
* Utilities to help set up calculations for `InterpolationPolarizabilityModel`, including displaced structure writing functionality.
* Additional tests, ideally achieving >95 % coverage
* Add read/write support for other VASP files, namely POSCAR and vasprun.xml
* Minor bugfixes and documentation updates

**v.0.2.0-alpha**
* Add support for molecular dynamics
* Add IO support for Phonopy
