Info

If you intend to do E3SM development, you should instead follow steps 1-12 in the Development Getting Started Guide and return to step 7 here.

These steps assume you are a member of the E3SM project.   Check the (staff only) /wiki/spaces/ED/pages/1867951 page to see if your machine is supported.


  1. Sign up for a free account at http://github.com
  2. "fork" the model to your own github account.
  3. Log on to the platform on which you want to run E3SM.  

  4. Install an ssh key from that platform to your github account.  See these instructions and note you can skip step 2 if you already have an ssh key on your machine.
  5. Clone the repository to your local account with:  git clone  --recursive git@github.com:E3SM-Project/E3SM.git  This will create a directory called "E3SM" with the code.
  6. cd to the E3SM/cime/scripts directory.
  7. You are now ready to create a case, build and run following the CIME quick guide.   By default, you will be running the latest version of "master".
