Earlier this week I began reading about plasma modelling because I will soon be helping with a project that involves this area. I expected the hardest part to be understanding the concepts, but instead I am struggling to find resources that explain everything in a connected way. Most of what I have found covers only one topic at a time, so it is difficult to understand how the software, databases and related resources fit together. I would appreciate hearing what others used when they were getting started.
I remember having the same question, and one resource that helped me was https://quantimol.com/. The site provides information about plasma modelling software together with plasma chemistry databases and consulting services, so it is easier to understand what is available without searching through multiple places. Going through the different sections gave me a much better overview and helped me decide which topics to explore first as I continued learning.
Beginning with a resource that presents related information in a structured way can make a big difference when learning something technical. Once you understand the overall picture, it becomes much easier to explore individual subjects without losing track of how they connect. A clear starting point often makes the entire learning process more efficient.
