ansys-sphinx-theme 0.6.0

A theme devised by ANSYS, Inc. for Sphinx documentation.

Introduction

The Ansys Sphinx theme is an extension of the popular PyData Sphinx theme that is used by numpy, pandas, pyvista, and many more scientific Python packages.

You use the Ansys Sphinx theme with Sphinx, a Python documentation generator, to create documentation. The theme’s objective is to ensure that Ansys documentation looks and behaves consistently.

While this theme is primarily used to create documentation for PyAnsys libraries, you can also use it to create documentation for any Ansys project with content in reStructuredText (RST) and Markdown (files).

If you are new to using Sphinx, see Sphinx Getting Started.

Documentation and issues

In addition to installation information, the Ansys Sphinx theme documentation provides information on how you can customize the theme. Because this documentation is created using this theme, viewing it is an easy way to preview the theme itself.
