An emerging theme across many domains of science and engineering is materials that change shape, often dramatically. Determining their structure involves solving a shape optimization problem where a given energy functional is minimized with respect to the shape of the domain and auxiliary fields describing the structure. Such problems are very challenging to solve and there is a lack of suitable simulation tools that are both readily accessible and general purpose. To address this gap, we present Morpho, an open-source programmable environment, and demonstrate its versatility by showcasing three applications to different areas of soft matter - swelling hydrogels, complex fluids that form aspherical droplets, to soap films and membranes - and advise on broader uses.
