Project source code

The entire project is open-source. This means that the platform can in prinicple be deployed to other infrastructures. Some deployment aspects are specific to the UniBE infrastructure, but others like container definitions are re-usable with minor modifications. The project is split into two main repositories:

  • Desktop repository: the entire VIBE Desktop is packaged into a container and deployed then as an OnDemand application. All information related to the desktop can be found here.
  • Applications repository: all applications available on VIBE are Apptainer containers. The corresponding definition files and scripts cand be found here.
  • Utilities: the project uses additional scripts for e.g. automated building, logo generation etc. These are quite specific to the platform but still made available here.
  • Documentation: the whole documentation (described above) is generated as a GitHub Page. The corresponding source code can be found here.
