Abstract
Numerical Relativity is a multidisciplinary field including relativity, magneto-hydrodynamics, astrophysics and computational methods, among others, with the aim of solving numerically highly-dynamical, strong-gravity scenarios where no other approximations are available. Here we describe some of the foundations of the field, starting from the covariant Einstein equations and how to write them as a well-posed system of evolution equations, discussing the different formalisms, coordinate conditions and numerical methods commonly employed nowadays for the modeling of gravitational wave sources.
