We use the cosmological hydrodynamic code Enzo to learn about galaxy evolution. The central tenet of the FOGGIE simulations is tracing the co-evolution of galaxies and their diffuse environs. To do so, we enforce exquisite spatial resolution in the circumgalactic medium in order to capture the small-scale physics and substructure of the bulk of the gas in the galactic ecosystem.
