Utilise package extensions to add features #650

Closed TorkelE closed 10 months ago

TorkelE commented 1 year ago

Julia 1.9 added package extensions, allowing us to have features that are dependent of other packages, without affecting people not interested in these: https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/blob/release-1.9/NEWS.md

It would allow us to; 1) Add wrapper functions around HomotopyContinuation, automating some of the stuff required to find steady states. For systems without conservation laws, we could simply have a function hc_ss(rs, ps) that gives the steady states. 2) Makie-related plotting features. primarily useful for spatial systems. Previously I had assumed that these would need to be put elsewhere, but now we could actually consider integrating it into Catalyst.

While not all extension are merged yet, this has now become established use.
