Anyone can deploy their unique application on
the Hubzero platform - ranging from a novice programmer to a research
scientist, to a seasoned software engineer, and everyone in-between. On a Hub,
a single instance of the Hubzero science gateway framework, users have access
to previously created simulation tools via a modern web browser. Many users
throughout the world are developing tools for plant phenotyping, geospatial
simulation, nanotechnology, cancer research, among other research focused
fields. Like the broad range of
potential application developers, Hubzero, i.e. Hubs, have the ability to
provide a range of methods to publish an application as well, and it is the
goal of this tutorial is to provide the knowledge to “get-started” creating an
application on the platform.
