Jet is a C++11 fluid simulation engine SDK for computer graphics, created alongside the book 'Fluid Engine Development'. It provides SPH, PCISPH, PIC/FLIP/APIC, smoke, and level-set liquid solvers in both 2D and 3D, with a Python API for prototyping.

Use cases

• simulate fluids for game or film animation
• learn how fluid simulation engines work
• prototype SPH or FLIP fluid solvers in Python
• add smoke and liquid effects to a graphics application
• study computational fluid dynamics solvers for graphics

When to choose

• you need a readable, educational fluid simulation engine in C++ or Python
• you want 2D and 3D particle and grid-based solvers out of the box
• you are following the Fluid Engine Development book

When to avoid

• you need production-grade, actively developed simulation for a commercial pipeline
• you need engineering-grade CFD rather than visual effects simulation
• you need GPU-accelerated real-time simulation
