 # New implimentation of 3+1D SSE
+New (as yet unnamed) 4DSSE code. 
 We need an exciting name.

+## Building
+In order to build you will need meson installed on your system. The easiest way to do this is to use the python package manager (pip)
+```bash
+pip install meson
+```
+You can then either use the mk script or meson commands automatically. When running either the script or meson commands manually `MFEM` will be pulled from github and built. As part of this a small patch will be applied to the MFEM `CMakeLists.txt` file. This process should only need to happen once as future builds will use the cached version of MFEM in `subprojects` and the cached build files of `MFEM` in `build`.

+## Current Status
+Currently we are working on implimenting modules such as opacity, equation of state, polytrope, and meshing. Builds may not work on any branches at any time.
