This dramatically simplifies the WEIS repository and relies on conda packaging to deliver the key NREL software tools that comprise much of the WEIS stack. Now delivered by conda:

  • OpenFAST
  • ROSCO
  • pyHAMS
  • RAFT
  • WISDEM
  • MoorPy
  • pCrunch

For straight users of WEIS, there is no more need for compilers and you can be up and running quickly. For developers, we recommend removing the conda package(s) that require new capabilities and installing from source directly.

Note that this approach is working well for Mac & Linux (current WEIS capability), but still struggles on Windows.
