MagFEM documentation

MagFEM solves two-dimensional magnetic field problems with the finite element method, right in the browser: parametric CAD, meshing, a nonlinear magnetostatic solver, transient and harmonic (AC) analysis with an external circuit, results and scripting. Everything runs locally, with nothing to install.
