Singularity is already installed for you on both the training virtual machines and on darwin.

To install on your own machine, follow the instructions in the . We are using version 2.4.5 for this workshop to get the most up-to-date support for running applications that make use of GPU compute.

Installing singularity on your own machine (where you have root/sudo access) will let you create new images either from scratch or from the software that you have installed.

You might also need squashfs-tools to be installed to build Singularity images. This is not required for running images.
