Description

Contributor guide

Research direction

Examine the Trixi source code for the `multiply dimensionwise` and related interpolation methods (likely in the `src/` directory). Then explore the Trixi2Vtk repository to understand how interpolation is currently implemented there. The goal is to port the new methods from Trixi to Trixi2Vtk and Trixi2Img. Review the comment thread for additional context. Check if there are any existing branches or drafts that attempted this port.
