The Ansys Developer Portal is the central hub for developers, engineers, and simulation users who want to extend, automate, customize, or integrate Ansys technologies.
It brings together resources such as:
- Product-specific developer documentation
- Ansys Rocky PrePost Scripting and Solver SDK references
- PyAnsys documentation
- Tutorials and examples
- Technical articles
- Developer guides
- Community discussions
- Links to GitHub repositories and open-source projects
For users working with Ansys Rocky, the Ansys Developer Portal provides access to information about Ansys Rocky automation, including PrePost Scripting, Solver SDK resources, and PyRocky documentation.
This is important because Ansys Rocky software can be automated at different levels depending on the engineering objective:
- Ansys Rocky PrePost Scripting can be used to automate model setup, simulation execution, post-processing, and result export.
- Solver SDK can be used for deeper customization through compiled modules integrated with the Ansys Rocky solver.
- PyRocky enables remote control of Ansys Rocky workflows from a Python environment and connects Ansys Rocky automation to the wider PyAnsys ecosystem.
For most engineers starting with automation, PyRocky is a user-friendly entry point because it lets them work in familiar Python environments, such as Jupyter Notebook or Visual Studio Code, while still interacting with Ansys Rocky simulation projects.
