## [Ansys Prime Mesh for developers](/docs/primemesh) ## Overview Ansys Prime Mesh™ software provides core Ansys meshing technology that can be used to build meshes of different types for various physics simulations. Developers can interface with the Prime Mesh software through two options using the Ansys Prime Server: - The open source Ansys **PyPrimeMesh** Python client to access the meshing APIs. - The Ansys **Prime Mesh Python client library** available in the Ansys installation. Ansys **Prime Mesh Python client library** is a forked and packaged version of the open source PyPrimeMesh library project that is included in the standard Ansys installation in Ansys 2024 R1 SP1 and later. It is intended for use by other Ansys products to execute Python workflows when a Python environment is not available. The Python clients allow developers to use the Ansys Prime Server to retrieve geometries and prepare surface and volume meshes for multiple solvers. ## OS and supported languages **Prime Mesh libraries** are available for **Windows** and **Linux** in: - Python ## Documentation ###### PyPrimeMesh (open source) PyPrimeMesh library consists of various Python modules that help you to retrieve geometries and prepare surface and volume meshes for multiple solvers.
