Abstract
This project focuses on creating software containers crucial for the global seismological community. These tools, widely used but often complex to compile due to dependencies, will be encapsulated in virtual environments to ensure seamless interaction and ease of use. The portable containers will enhance software sharing and scientific reproducibility. The project involves a postdoctoral researcher and a doctoral student, and Continuous Integration and Continuous Development pipelines will maintain open access repositories. A dedicated workstation with GPU-accelerated hardware will support this. At the project's midpoint, a workshop with software developers will gather feedback and boost container awareness, which will guide final enhancements.
