This page lists channels that provide packages for scientific and high-performance computing (HPC).

WARNING

The channels on this page provide non-free software—software that denies users essential freedoms. From a scientific viewpoint, non-free software packages are black boxes; relying on them is akin to relying on magic potions in chemistry. It goes against the principles of reproducible research and “open science”—it goes against the principles of science. Read more about our views in this paper.

This page is provided for your convenience but the Guix-HPC project recommends against the use of non-free software. Check out the wealth of channels providing free software packages.
