			The research computing system includes a collection of libraries designed to address a variety of needs. The libraries you use and how you interact with them, depends on which aspect of the system you want to leverage. It is possible to work exclusively with one library, using only it's default interface. More evolved tool users might leverage many different libraries and combine them in novel ways to create new applications or additional services. Nonetheless, even simple scripts that only tune a default feature are often the most appreciated.

			Our goal is to get you started developing, a.k.a. creating, as quickly as possible. You will eventually want to become familiar with the system model so you can organize your work accordingly.

			Generally speaking, as a developer, you will find yourself working in one of two areas of the system. You are either building scripts to support data analysis or virtual experiments using the compute library or you are working on web accessible libraries or applications. The compute library, a.k.a. the cluster Cheaha and all the tools it makes available, is very mature and is used autonomously by most developers today. Web accessible resources are at the leading edge of our research computing platform.

			Developers building web accessible libraries and applications, typically, work closely with the core team since this part of the platform is under heavy construction and requires a higher level of coordination between team members.

			The following guides provide a rough introduction to the environment.
