Description

Software environments can be switched cleanly through Lua-based module files.

This package is useful for HPC users, researchers, and administrators who manage multiple compiler, MPI, or application versions. It handles hierarchical MODULEPATH setups and legacy Tcl modules.

Environment modules change shell variables and command paths. Load modules deliberately to avoid mixing incompatible toolchains.
