  First principles methods can provide insight into materials that is otherwise
impossible to acquire. Density Functional Theory (DFT) has been the first
principles method of choice for numerous applications, but it falls short of
predicting the properties of correlated materials. First principles Density
Functional Theory + Dynamical Mean Field Theory (DFT+DMFT) is a powerful tool
that can address these shortcomings of DFT when applied to correlated metals.
In this brief review, which is aimed at non-experts, we review the basics and
some applications of DFT+DMFT.
