The ABINIT software allows the first principles calculation of properties of molecules and solids.
This is an international project which involves a few dozen developers.
There are more than three hundred users, coming mainly from the academic world and large research institutes.
This software is an open source project and is distributed under GNU-GPL licence (same as Linux).
