The CRAL personnel is involved in various software developments from numerical simulations or modelisation to data analysis and data reduction, contributing to existing world-wide used software (adding functionalities or optimizing some parts) or developing complete new software. A great number of these software is available for the community and may be found below.
Some of them may be downloaded from the CRAL gitlab server.
