# HPC Container Maker
HPC Container Maker (HPCCM - pronounced H-P-see-M) is an open source
tool to make it easier to generate container specification files.

## Overview
HPC Container Maker generates Dockerfiles or Singularity definition
files from a high level Python recipe. HPCCM recipes have some
distinct advantages over "native" container specification formats.
1. A library of HPC [building blocks](/docs/building_blocks.md) that
separate the choice of what to include in a container image from
the details of how it's done. The building blocks transparently
provide the latest component and container best practices.
2. Python provides increased flexibility over static container
specification formats. Python-based recipes can branch, validate
user input, etc. - the same recipe can generate multiple container
specifications.
3. Generate either Dockerfiles or Singularity definition files from
the same recipe.
