= Swift/T Quick Start

Swift/T is an implicitly parallel programming language for composing external functions and command-line executables into massively parallel applications. The external functions may be calls to external programs, libraries, or scripting languages (via embedded interpreters) Thus, it is a _workflow language_ for extreme-scale computing, capable of executing very large numbers (trillions) of tasks at high rates across the largest supercomputers.

Swift/T runs as an MPI program, and is compatible with Cray and IBM supercomputers, as well as PBS, SLURM, LSF, or Cobalt clusters, and can also run on a laptop (Linux, Mac, or WSL).

Swift/T may be installed following one of these methods:

* https://spack.io[Spack]
+
----
$ spack install stc
----
* https://conda.io[Conda]
+
----
$ conda install -c swift-t swift-t
----
* Debian (Ubuntu) packages
* A script (+build-swift-t.sh+) that automates the +configure+/+make+ process
* A +configure+/+make+ source build (recommended for exotic systems)
