More details of custom install can be found in installation manual
- A user-guide written in Ipython notebook can be found in https://github.com/pyscf/PySCF_Tutorial. This repository documents the basic structure of PySCF input script and the use of regular methods which were routinely executed in most quantum chemistry packages. It also provides an implementation to drive PySCF program in a simple manner.
- Developer's tutorial can be found in the online documentation http://pyscf.org/pyscf/tutorial.html#tutorial and the repository above https://github.com/pyscf/PySCF_Tutorial/blob/master/dev_guide.ipynb
