+# Philosophy
+Florence follows scipy's philosophy of providing a high level pythonic interface to finite element analysis of partial differential equations. It is a light weight library that depends only on the most ubiquitous python packages namely numpy, scipy and cython. Yet it is aimed to deliver high performance numerical computations on a range modern architectures. It is backend is designed to be configurable for plugging new solvers such as Petsc's and hypre's parallel solvers.
