Getting Started

This guide aims to introduce all core functionalities of pomato in a tutorial like structure. It covers set up, folder/data/model structure and introduces the current workflow and targeted use case by running the DE case study.

A successful execution of pomato requires three components: Folder structure, valid options and correctly formatted input data. While there is some flexibility for each of these components, they must abide a general structure that is layed out in the next three subsections.

While it is generally a good idea to have the program dynamically adopt to all possible inputs, but because pomato performs a very specific function it simply requires a certain parametrization to work. We have opted to be fairly strict when it comes to definition of data structure and input parameters, but made sure the definitions are easily accessible to potentially adopt pomato to other applications.
