Field notes
The workflow exposes controls for temperature, cooling rate, particle density, and grain-bond strength, with changes applying during a run. The site lists nine guided studies and says users can inspect defects, compare saved specimens, and export CSV, JSON recipe, or PNG files. It also describes an Instrument Guide that explains how readings are computed; the scientific scope is presented as simulated growth, with model limitations acknowledged.
