abstract = {EasyBuild is a software build and installation framework,
widely used on HPC systems and clusters to manage software
installations. With over 20.000 build configs, corresponding
build blocks and a whole framework around it, EasyBuild is a
large project and contributing can feel intimidating at
first. But it does not have to be!In this talk, I will talk
about my journey starting to contribute to EasyBuild. I show
my personal use case, my motivation to contribute both
upstream and at JSC, and my experiences in doing so. I share
features I appreciated, how I accidentally broke EasyBuild
twice and mention issues I ran into during development.At
the end I will open the discussion regarding improvements
for users and developers and share things I would like to
see in EasyBuild in the future.},
