Research software plays an increasingly important role in academic research and is now not only an indispensable scientific instrument but also a key output of many research projects. This is particularly true for the Natural and Engineering Sciences (NES). This project develops best practices for developing, managing and preserving software in a sustainable way, taking into account issues and needs specific for the NES domain. To facilitate widespread adoption, these best practices are actively promoted through training and community building activities, in the NES domain and beyond.
