Use cases of ChargedPointDefect vs. ChargedPointDefectConfiguration

[evansjc]

Hi,

I am planning to study defects like vacancies and hydrogen interstitials. I would like to know what the main differences are between an approach based on the ChargedPointDefect object and an approached based on the ChargedPointDefectConfiguration object. Is one recommended over the other based on the specifics of the problem? Is one more general? Is it mostly that ChargedPointDefectConfiguration can more easily act on a set of defects rather than a single defect or a defect cluster?

Thank you for your help!

Yes, that is the main difference. A new tutorial on this topic is in the works.
