 LLNL developers create and evolve software on a daily basis. Some of this software is used only internally, other components are licensed for use by external partners and collaborators, and still other software is released and actively developed out in the open on software-hosting platforms. This website is the gateway to all of it.
 
-LLNL is a Department of Energy ([DOE](https://www.energy.gov/national-laboratories)) institution, so we abide by the [Federal Source Code Policy](https://www.energy.gov/articles/doe-federal-source-code-policy)* that guides release of open source software (OSS). And not just because we have to but because we *want* to. Long before GitHub was founded, [we started releasing software](https://software.llnl.gov/visualize/) for public use and collaboration.

 Case in point: The DOE's Advanced Simulation and Computing ([ASC](https://asc.llnl.gov)) Program leverages OSS to build, field, and integrate Linux clusters into production service at our [Livermore Computing high-performance computing center](https://hpc.llnl.gov/). ASC is responsible for developing computer simulation capabilities that analyze and predict the performance, safety, and effectiveness of the nation's nuclear stockpile. In other words, the stakes are high for ensuring our code is accurate. With OSS, we can develop quickly and choose the best solutions.
