While you may already know about preCICE, a lot has happened in the past five years, as discussed in our latest preprint. From a library being used by just a few academic groups in Germany, it has now grown to a complete coupling ecosystem, used by more than 100 research groups worldwide. Apart from the library itself, we now also maintain ready-to-use adapters for several open-source solvers, language bindings, and tutorial cases. We have now developed extensive documentation, packages for common platforms, and a strong testing infrastructure, while we are making good progress in integrating contributors from the rapidly growing community. In this session, I would like to discuss how we reached this point and what other software projects could learn from this journey.      «
