  The neutrons for science facility (NFS), the first operational experimental
area of the new GANIL/SPIRAL-2 facility, received its first beams in December
2019. Proton-induced reaction cross-sections as well as neutron beam
characteristics were measured during the first commissioning phases. The first
results, showing the features of the facility, are presented here and compared
with previously published data. The physics cases and the first accepted
experiments are presented as well.
