# EPANET Python Toolkit (EPyT)
The `EPANET-Python Toolkit` is an open-source software, originally developed by the [KIOS Research and Innovation Center of Excellence, University of Cyprus](http://www.kios.ucy.ac.cy/) which operates within the Python environment, for providing a programming interface for the latest version of [EPANET](https://github.com/OpenWaterAnalytics/epanet), a hydraulic and quality modeling software created by the US EPA, with Python, a high-level technical computing software. The goal of the EPANET Python Toolkit is to serve as a common programming framework for research and development in the growing field of smart water networks.
The `EPANET-Python Toolkit` features easy to use commands/wrappers for viewing, modifying, simulating and plotting results produced by the EPANET libraries.
For support, please use the OWA community forum : http://community.wateranalytics.org/
