Containers

Many HPC groups are using containers for their software. Some tools come as singularity or docker  images. 

(1) If there is no docker container available for your package you can build one in your local machine with the OS of your choice and install your package.
(2) Push the container to a cloud container repo. ie. https://hub.docker.com
(3) Pull the docker container as a singularity image in juno, doing singularity pull docker://<your-image>
(4) Run your package by doing singularity run <your-image> <your-package-command>

Module avail will show you the available packages and versions.

You can use module to load singularity as:
module load singularity/3.7.1
