# mkite_vasp

`mkite_conformer` is a plugin that helps running DFT calculations using [VASP](https://vasp.at/).
The plugin uses [pymatgen](https://github.com/materialsproject/pymatgen) and [custodian](https://github.com/materialsproject/custodian) to create the VASP inputs using Python, as well as running and monitoring the VASP calculation.
As an example, this plugin implements recipes such as relaxation and single-point calculations.
