To run your first XBeach model, please follow the steps listed in the menu on the left. The menu takes you through all steps from registration to analysis of your first model results. In between you have several choices, for example if you want to build XBeach from source or prefer to download a pre-compiled version of XBeach. Everything is open-source and free of charge.

So, start with registration of your free open source software account. If you already have an OpenDelft3D account, you can skip registration and use this account.

XBeach is an open-source application, which makes it possible to collaborate in the development easily. Any contribution, from bugfixes to full new features, is appreciated. To be able to commit your changes, you'll need write access to the Subversion repository. Please request permission by contacting the development team.
