The primary goal of the hackathon was to promote TTK in our research community as a unified software development platform for topology-based data analysis algorithms. To this end, participants were first introduced to the structure and capabilities of TTK, and then worked on their own TTK-related projects while being mentored by senior TTK developers. Notable outcomes of the hackathon were first steps towards Python and Docker packages, further integration of TTK in Inviwo, the extension of TTK with new algorithms, and the discovery of current limitations of TTK as well as future development directions.}, doi = {10.1007/978-3-030-83500-2_18}, issn = {2197-666X}, }
