Hi Dario, I'm going through your dissertation and had a few questions about Coyote. What's the best way to get in touch with you?

Hi @bibhas ,

Dario completed his doctorate and graduated from ETH, so he is no longer actively working on Coyote. There are few others working on it at the moment. If you have any questions, please open specific GitHub issues / discussions and we will do our best to answer them. We are also currently working on improving the Coyote documentation, examples and also adding some video tutorials.
