Accueil Aether

The project

Aether is an open-source optical simulations suite, coded in C++ for Windows and Linux, born out of the research and needs at the L2n laboratory in France, which is part of the University of Technology of Troyes.

As such, its main aims are either research or educations, and is not at a stage befitting of a commercial software yet.

It is an evolving project and might be subject to numerous changes.

As of now and for the forseeable future, it is not available on MacOS due to Apple's refusal to properly support OpenGL. However, we are open to any successful report of it working through Zink and MoltenVK.
