+
+Microservices to codesign photonics, electronics, communications,
+quantum, and more.
+
+-   Free software: MIT license
+-   Documentation: <https://piel.readthedocs.io>
+
+## Target functionality
+
+-   Co-simulation and optimisation between integrated photonic and
+    electronic chip design.
+-   System interconnection modelling in multiple domains.
+-   Chip and interposer design integration.
+-   Component models translation library between simulation tools.
+-   Quantum models of physical circuitry.
+
+`piel` aims to provide an integrated workflow to co-design photonics and
+electronics, classically and quantum. It does not aim to replace the
+individual functionality of each design tool, but rather provide a glue
+to easily connect them all together and extract the system performance.
+
+## Examples
+
+Follow the many [examples in the
+documentation](https://piel.readthedocs.io/en/latest/examples.html).
+
+## Microservices Toolset
+
+This package provides interconnection functions to easily co-design
+microelectronics through the functionality of the
+[IIC-OSIC-TOOLS](https://github.com/iic-jku/iic-osic-tools) and
+photonics via [GDSFactory](https://github.com/gdsfactory/gdsfactory).
+

+
+Some existing microservice dependency integrations are:
+
+-   [cocotb](https://github.com/cocotb/cocotb) - a coroutine based
+    cosimulation library for writing VHDL and Verilog testbenches in
+    Python.
+-   [hdl21](https://github.com/dan-fritchman/Hdl21) - Analog Hardware
+    Description Library in Python
+-   [GDSFactory](https://github.com/gdsfactory/gdsfactory) - An open
+    source platform for end to-end photonic chip design and validation
+-   [OpenLane v1](https://github.com/The-OpenROAD-Project/OpenLane) - an
+    automated RTL to GDSII flow based on several components including
+    OpenROAD, Yosys, Magic, Netgen and custom methodology scripts for
+    design exploration and optimization
+-   [sax](https://github.com/flaport/sax) - S-parameter based frequency
+    domain circuit simulations and optimizations using JAX.
+-   [thewalrus](https://github.com/XanaduAI/thewalrus) -A library for
+    the calculation of hafnians, Hermite polynomials and Gaussian boson
+    sampling.
+-   [qutip](https://github.com/qutip/qutip) - QuTiP: Quantum Toolbox in
+    Python
