Dear all,

I am happy to announce a new package [GridapBifurcationKit.jl](https://github.com/rveltz/GridapBifurcationKit) which allows to perform bifurcation analysis of PDE using the FEM implemented in [Gridap.jl](https://github.com/gridap/Gridap.jl).

In effect, this is just a wrapper of [BifurcationKit.jl](https://github.com/rveltz/BifurcationKit.jl) but I thought it is convenient enough to make it a package. The beauty of [Gridap.jl](https://github.com/gridap/Gridap.jl) lies in the way one can specify sophisticated PDE and I hope that the associated framework can benefit from bifurcation analysis.

You can see a simple example of use in this tutorial.

What is missing to this new package is using the new AD (autodiff) from [Gridap.jl](https://github.com/gridap/Gridap.jl/blob/1d4b6d5d9f21219cc3dffa201c3121d2957cd6ee/src/FESpaces/FEAutodiff.jl), if you have an idea, do not hesitate to make a PR.

I hope you will find this useful,

Best regards.
