redsun

Note

redsun is ready to deploy, but expect breaking changes while the API settles.

redsun is a CPython framework for building modular scientific data acquisition software.

It builds on the Bluesky ecosystem and makes no assumptions about hardware, so each lab can build the control software its experiments need.

redsun aims to:

  • ship the tools to build the wheel, rather than another wheel;
  • stay modular: use only the parts a job needs;
  • leave data and metadata to you: you decide what they mean.
