Swarm viz with ParaView
The documentation "Some visualization tools, like Visit and Paraview, prefer to have access to an id field for each " leads me to believe that our default hdf5 output allows particles to be visualized with ParaView. Is there anything special I have to take care of (as I don't get the particles but I confirmed that they are in the hdf5 file).

I never got the particle XDMF to work properly. There are stubs for it in parthenon_xdmf.cpp, along with a preprocessor variable that you can set to on to enable them. At the time I asked parthenon folks if anyone had any ideas---no one did---and I reached out to the paraview and visit teams and never heard back from anybody about what was wrong, so I gave up.
If you wanted to take a look and see if you can get it working, an second pair of eyes would be very welcome!
Ah, yes, I remember. Given that OpenPMD was made for particles, I'll focus my efforts on supporting particles there for now.
The swarm HDF5 logic may be useful for OpenPMD as well, but yes that's where I'd focus
