About

EasyBuild is an open-source framework for building and installing scientific software on High Performance Computing (HPC) systems. It allows HPC administrators and users to manage complex software stacks efficiently using structured build recipes. The tool supports a wide range of scientific software packages and integrates with module systems like Lmod and Environment Modules.

Problem

Managing and installing complex scientific software on HPC systems is time-consuming and error-prone without a structured framework.

For

HPC system administrators and scientific computing users

How it works

Users define software build specifications in easyconfig files and EasyBuild automates the entire build, installation, and module generation process with a single command.
