Introduction

Hydra is a framework for elegantly configuring complex applications. The name Hydra comes from its ability to run multiple similar jobs - much like a Hydra with multiple heads.

Key features:

• Hierarchical configuration composable from multiple sources
• Configuration can be specified or overridden from the command line
• Dynamic command line tab completion
• Run your application locally or launch it to run remotely
• Run multiple jobs with different arguments with a single command

The best way to understand what Hydra is good for is to go through the tutorial.
