EasyBuild: building software with ease, a Python framework for building and installing (scientific) software

[EasyBuild ([email protected]) @easy_build]

You may have noticed that we've been awfully quiet here in the last couple of months.

It's clear that Twitter/X isn't what it used to be anymore, so we've moved on.

For updates on EasyBuild, please follow us on BlueSky: https://t.co/RQL7uRv6MN

@FelixCLC_ That definitely sounds interesting!
RISC-V accelerators (and CPUs) will be hard to ignore for the EasyBuild community quite soon...

Sounds like an interesting keynote talk even!

Please get in touch with us (Kenneth for example) via email or Slack, we're not on Twitter often

Very nice to see this. I hope that the EESSI model spreads and becomes the de facto standard for software distribution on HPCs. @cvmfs + @gentoo prefix + @easy_build is a perfect combo!

[EESSI @EESSI_hpc]

Did you know that EESSI got nominated for the @HPCwire Readers' Choice Awards 2024? 😎

Please join the vote by 4 Oct, and help us increase our chances of actually winning the award in the "Best #HPC Programming Tool or Technology" category.

@westbynoreaster @st01014 @lemire No, AVX512 implies V4.

This post is a good 5 minute read on what's what if you don't need too many details and want a more general understanding.

If you want the more hardcore details, my AVX10 talk for @easy_build last year covers from 1979 to 2024:
