Here, I have presented softpotato, a Python library that includes typical electrochemical equations and can simulate electrochemical processes assuming planar diffusion and Butler-Volmer kinetics. The library is thought as a tool to aid in the analysis and simulation of electrochemical experiments, everything on a single script. In this way, data analysis and simulations can be automated to obtain results immediately after the experiments are performed, opening the possibility of having live feedback for the next experiments. To the best of my knowledge, and at the time of writing, there is currently no other electrochemistry tool similar to softpotato that can enable a researcher to do this. Although open source general simulators already exist, they are used mostly as tools for teaching. With softpotato and the Soft Potato Desktop application, it is my goal to help turning electrochemistry into a data science, where computers are used in a more efficient manner to solve complex problems and perform data handling. It is my hope that softpotato can be embraced by the community at large to help them the same way it has helped me in my own research. sp . p l o t t i n g . p l o t ( wf .
