It's time for a ByteSized RSE episode - and this time on the subject of 'easybuild' a tool to help you build and install software on high performance computers (HPC). 
My guest to help me with presenting easybuild is Jörg Saßmannshausen from Imperial College in London, UK.

NOTE: this is an entry level discussion. 

And there is a QUIZ as well. If you know the answer to the two following questions email them to code4thought@proton.me :

  1. What is the main reason to use a tool like EasyBuild rather than installing software manually?
  2. Why is reproducible software installation important?


And we have some links for you as well:
