Meet the vibyverse.
Five projects. A shared curiosity. A new home for the ideas, tools, and people behind the calculations.
THE QUANTUM CHEMISTRY ECOSYSTEM
Small particles.
Big possibilities.
A connected universe of tools to draw, calculate,
and explore. Follow your curiosity, from the first
idea to the next discovery.
FIVE PROJECTS.ONE SHARED CURIOSITY.

01 / THE ECOSYSTEMDifferent tools.
Different tools.
Shared orbit.
Good science takes more than a single program.
Meet five projects with their own purpose,
connected by the way you work.
01vibe-qcCalculate
The engine of your curiosity.
Electronic-structure calculations for molecules and periodic solids. A Python interface meets a C++ core, with method status and scientific documentation close at hand.
02vibe-viewExplore
See what the numbers are saying.
Explore structures, orbitals, densities, and spectra from QVF archives and supported chemistry files. Work in a browser, on the desktop, in a terminal, or through Python.
03vibe-queueOrchestrate
Keep your calculations moving.
Submit, track, and retrieve command-line work across your laptop, remote machines over SSH, and configured PBS or Slurm clusters. Built for chemistry, useful beyond it.
04vibe-sketchCreate
Every discovery starts with an idea.
Draw chemical structures and reactions, create publication graphics, and prepare calculation inputs. Currently a testing version, with desktop packaging and queue submission on the roadmap.
05qvfConnect
Give your results a common language.
The Quantum Visualization Format keeps structure, scientific data, and provenance in one shareable archive. An independent format with an Apache-2.0 reference toolkit.
Independently developed. Better connected.Documentation & developer resources
02 / THE BIGGER PICTUREFollow the idea.
Follow the idea.
Find something new.
From a structure on the page to a result
you can explore. A place for every part
of your scientific process.
01 / CREATE
Give it shape.
Turn a chemical idea into a structure with vibe-sketch.
02 / CALCULATE
Ask the electrons.
Explore molecular and periodic chemistry with vibe-qc.
03 / ORCHESTRATE
Let it run.
Put your machines to work with vibe-queue.
04 / EXPLORE
See the possibility.
Look closer at your structures and results with vibe-view.
03 / THE JOURNALNews from
All stories →News from
our corner of the universe.
One calculation. One file. More possibilities.
Meet QVF, the shared container that keeps a calculation’s data and context together.
From a sketch to a new perspective.
A tour of the tools behind drawing, calculating, running, and exploring chemistry.
04 / RESEARCH & PUBLICATIONSBuilt on ideas.
Built on ideas.
Shared through research.
Read the papers behind the ecosystem and discover selected research citing our work.
Explore publications & citations ↗BUILT WITH CURIOSITY
Serious about the science.
Open to the possibilities.
The vibyverse brings together the quantum chemistry projects created and maintained by Dr. Michael F. Peintinger. Independent tools, a connected vision, and a belief that the work around a calculation matters too.
SPONSORSHIP & SUPPORTGood science.
Good science.
Stronger together.
The vibyverse grows through the time, care, and resources behind each release. Help sustain independent quantum chemistry tools, from development and scientific validation to documentation and long-term maintenance.
01 / FINANCIAL SPONSORSHIP
Fund the work.
Sponsor development, testing, and maintenance across the ecosystem. Individuals, research groups, and organizations are welcome.
02 / COMPUTING & INFRASTRUCTURE
Share your resources.
Contribute compute time, hardware access, or infrastructure to help test and improve the tools.
03 / COMMUNITY CONTRIBUTIONS
Bring your expertise.
Help with benchmarks, bug reports, code, documentation, or teaching materials. Every contribution helps the ecosystem grow.
