## Features

#### Features of Catalyst
- [The Catalyst DSL](https://docs.sciml.ai/Catalyst/stable/model_creation/dsl_basics/) provides a simple and readable format for manually specifying reaction
network models using chemical reaction notation.
- Catalyst `ReactionSystem`s provides a symbolic representation of reaction networks,
built on [ModelingToolkit.jl](https://docs.sciml.ai/ModelingToolkit/stable/) and
[Symbolics.jl](https://docs.sciml.ai/Symbolics/stable/).
- The [Catalyst.jl API](http://docs.sciml.ai/Catalyst/stable/api/catalyst_api) provides functionality
for extending networks, building networks programmatically, and for composing
multiple networks together.
- Leveraging ModelingToolkit, generated models can be converted to symbolic reaction rate equation ODE models, symbolic Chemical Langevin Equation models, and symbolic stochastic chemical kinetics (jump process) models. These can be simulated using any
[DifferentialEquations.jl](https://docs.sciml.ai/DiffEqDocs/stable/)
[ODE/SDE/jump solver](https://docs.sciml.ai/Catalyst/stable/model_simulation/simulation_introduction/), and can be used within `EnsembleProblem`s for carrying
out [parallelized parameter sweeps and statistical sampling](https://docs.sciml.ai/Catalyst/stable/model_simulation/ensemble_simulations/). Plot recipes
are available for [visualization of all solutions](https://docs.sciml.ai/Catalyst/stable/model_simulation/simulation_plotting/).
- Non-integer (e.g. `Float64`) stoichiometric coefficients [are supported](https://docs.sciml.ai/Catalyst/stable/model_creation/dsl_basics/#dsl_description_stoichiometries_decimal) for generating
ODE models, and symbolic expressions for stoichiometric coefficients [are supported](https://docs.sciml.ai/Catalyst/stable/model_creation/parametric_stoichiometry/) for
all system types.
