Dear Michael, Nothing has been released yet.
If you just want to do Coulomb blockade, I would go for Master/Lindblad equation and for that you can use e.g. the qutip solver (https://qutip.org <https://qutip.org/>) or even write your own. (First construct the quantum dot empirically and calculate the parameters of the master/Lindblad equation with Kwant. Second use qutip to solve the latter). If you want a realistic model that treats the electrostatic properly (i.e. the input is just the geometry of the gates + some material parameters), then you have to wait a bit for the PESCADO package that is a few months away from its first release (you will still need a master equation solver eventually). If you want the full thing (i.e. with Kondo effect) then the best method we have at the moment is by far this: https://arxiv.org/abs/2207.06135 <https://arxiv.org/abs/2207.06135> but we’re still a long way from releasing an open source code (The core of the algorithm, the « tensor cross interpolation " part will be released soon though, the package will be called Xfactorization or xfac).
