EasyBuild is a software build and installation framework that allows you to manage (scientific) software on High Performance Computing (HPC) systems in an efficient way.

The easybuild-easyblocks package provides a collection of easyblocks for EasyBuild. Easyblocks are Python modules that implement the install procedure for a (group of) software package(s). Together with the EasyBuild framework, they allow to easily build and install supported software packages.

The EasyBuild documentation is available at http://easybuild.readthedocs.org/.

The easybuild-easyblocks source code is hosted on GitHub, along with an issue tracker for bug reports and feature requests, see http://github.com/hpcugent/easybuild-easyblocks.
