# OpenMMTools¶

A batteries-included toolkit for the GPU-accelerated OpenMM molecular simulation engine.

openmmtools is a Python library layer that sits on top of OpenMM to provide access to a variety of useful tools for building full-featured molecular simulation packages.

Features include:

• high-quality Langevin integrators, including g-BAOAB, VVVR, and other splittings
• integrators that support nonequilibrium switching for free energy calculations or nonequilibrium candidate Monte Carlo (NCMC)
• an extensible Markov chain Monte Carlo framework for mixing Monte Carlo and molecular dynamics-based methods
• factories for generating alchemically-modified systems for absolute and relative free energy calculations
• a suite of test systems for benchmarking, validation, and debugging

You can go through the getting started tutorial for an overview of the library or the developer’s guide for information on how to extend the existing features.
