Okay, let's end this Tabs vs Space debate once and for all
In our codebase ( https://github.com/idaholab/moose ) tabs are the first thing looked for in our continuous integration system. A tab will be an INSTANT fail.

Generate MFEM initial mesh file using WELSIM
MFEM (mfem.org) is one of the most active open-source partial differential equation (PDE) solver projects in recent years. Although this open source package is positioned as a lightweight and scalable C++ library, it provides higher-order finite element spaces, supports mixed elements, discontinuous Galerkin elements, isogeometric analysis methods, and more. In particular, it has great advantages in high-performance computing, not only supports message passing interface (MPI) parallelism and shared memory parallelism (OpenMP), but also has good strength in GPU parallel computing. The built-in post-processing program GLVis can easily read and display the result files. The BSD-3 license is also extremely friendly to developers. Recently, MFEM supports Python programming, which makes the library more convenient for various types of researchers.

Open source / part time research in the world of HPC?
If you are looking for something more numerically intensive, check out MFEM: https://mfem.org. Lots of examples in the gallery there; lots of cool higher order curved meshes and physics problems to play with. Probably a higher learning curve than some of your other options.

How is it working at Idaho National Lab?
If you're interested in a FEM framework designed by computer scientists and mathematicians, MFEM has treated me well. Maybe just something to compare to.

Intact Solutions is hiring a Software Engineer
We currently have several solvers of our own, as well as interfacing with MPI capable solvers via mfem. We are currently a pre and post processor for several NASTRAN based solvers using our meshing free method.

Does anyone have open source C++ projects that I can try contributing to?
I’m working on MFEM. It is a Finite Element Method (FEM) library. Some of the work would require knowledge of the FEM but there’s a lot of stuff like implementing operators in vector classes that you could do too!
