Level-Set Extract isosurfaces from implicit functions
Lagrangian Motion Remesh while preserving displacement fields
PyVista Integration Seamless conversion for visualization
40+ File Formats VTK, STL, OBJ, GMSH, and more via meshio

Quick Start

import mmgpy

# Load a mesh from any supported format
mesh = mmgpy.read("input.mesh")

# Remesh with target edge size
result = mesh.remesh(hmax=0.1)
print(f"Quality: {result.quality_mean_before:.2f} → {result.quality_mean_after:.2f}")

# Save the result
mesh.save("output.vtk")

Installation

pip install mmgpy

uv pip install mmgpy
# or: uv add mmgpy (project dependency)
# or: uv tool install mmgpy (mmg2d_O3, mmg3d_O3, mmgs_O3 globally)
