-**StableSpectralElements.jl** is a Julia framework for the numerical solution of hyperbolic and mixed hyperbolic-parabolic conservation laws on general unstructured grids using provably stable discontinuous spectral-element methods of arbitrary order, with an emphasis on dispatched strategies for the evaluation of a broad class of discretization operators. StableSpectralElements.jl supports shared-memory parallelization through multithreading.
