Hello, I was wondering if anyone knew if there were libraries included in ignition like scipy or tensorflow. I know there is a way to add some libraries like the link below, but I didn’t know if they were compatible or if someone developed a ready to use interface already like a module I could download.

Those scientific libraries (numpy, scipy, tensorflow, …) tend to focus a lot on numeric speed. This sadly means they often have a C++ backend, and make them incompatible with Jython (which is used in Ignition). If you want to use external libraries for a complex problem, your best bet is probably to search for a Java library, and make an Ignition module for it. Though that requires a lot more setup than just adding scripts to a directory.
