The syntax is similar. Following [the DOLFINx tutorial](https://jsdokken.com/dolfinx-tutorial/) and looking at the [python](https://github.com/FEniCS/dolfinx/tree/main/python/demo) and [C++](https://github.com/FEniCS/dolfinx/tree/main/cpp/demo) demos is probably all you need to see the differences.
