Welcome to SAInt Docs
1. What is SAInt?
The Scenario Analysis Interface for Energy Systems (SAInt) is a software platform designed to model integrated energy networks and markets. SAInt allows modeling energy markets, electricity networks, gas networks, coupled electric and gas networks, and thermal networks.
2. Components of SAInt Docs
A key component of SAInt is its continuously expanding documentation ecosystem. The user is guided in the learning process of energy systems model development with an in-depth description of SAInt functionalities and practical and concise how-to guides. Tutorials and learning more cases further support the user in realizing detailed studies and answering cutting-edge questions. SAInt documentation takes advantage of the more modern web publishing frameworks to create a dynamic and modern experience aimed to answer your modeling questions quickly and efficiently.
The documentation ecosystem of SAInt is built around four main components.

4. How to Search Titles and Text
To search titles and text in SAInt Docs, type the words in the top-right search box. The section titles containing any of those word are found at first, then the search is performed on the text. By default, the search only applies to the current component. Uncheck the box in this component, to enable searching on all the components. Use any of these five advanced searching techniques to customize your search:
(1) Any word will be reduced to its stem. For example, to search "objects" is the same as to search "object".
(2) To find sections whose titles contain "network", type:
title:network
(3) To perform a logical AND search, like "foo AND bar", prefix both words with +
:
+foo +bar
This can also be combined with the second technique:
+title:network +gas
(4) Similarly, to exclude a word, prefix it with -
:
+foo bar -baz
(5) The wildcard (*) is supported. For example, to search any word with an "oo"-ending:
*oo
