What if you could avoid installing a broad range of scientific software from scratch on every
supercomputer, cloud instance, or laptop you use or maintain, without compromising on performance?
supercomputer, cloud instance, or laptop you use or maintain\ldots without compromising on performance?

Installing scientific software is known to be a tedious and time-consuming task. The software stack
continues to deepen as computational science expands rapidly, the diversity of system architectures

This tutorial aims to address these challenges by introducing (i) \emph{CernVM-FS},
a distributed read-only filesystem designed to efficiently \emph{stream} software installations on-demand,
and (ii) the \emph{European Environment for Scientific Software Installations (EESSI)},

cluster, a cloud environment, or a personal workstation.

The tutorial covers installing and configuring CernVM-FS, the usage of EESSI,
installing software into and on top of EESSI, and advanced topics like GPU support and performance tuning.

EESSI is an initiative built on the foundations of the EasyBuild community, which is used by well over 100 HPC sites worldwide

truly uniform software stack. It already has a wide spectrum of collaborators including SURF, BSC, Ghent University, etc.,
despite being a relatively young project.
