A flexible package manager that supports multiple configurations.


Spack is a multi-platform package manager that builds and installs multiple
versions and configurations of software. It works on Linux, macOS, and many
supercomputers. Spack is non-destructive: installing a new version of a
package does not break existing installations, so many configurations of the
same package can coexist.

Spack offers a simple "spec" syntax that allows users to specify versions and
configuration options. Package files are written in pure Python, and specs
allow package authors to write a single script for many different builds of
the same package. With Spack, you can build your software all the ways you
want to.
