Description

In my day to day work, I usually use SWAN when I need to share with my colleagues some fast computation, some toy Monte Carlo or some quick analysis.
I also use SWAN when performing some tests or preparing some physics figures so I can always have them stored for future reference.
I find the usage of SWAN useful when working together with many people, it is nice to have an isolated environment that anyone can access.
It worked quite nicely with summer students as well even though they had some difficulty to start.
It is easy to prepare some tutorials based on SWAN so that newcomers can learn easily by trial and error without any serious consequence.

Here I will try to explain a bit more in detail about my experience, give you some examples and possibly some suggestions.
