Step 1: Download LATTE Source Code from Project

Download or clone the LATTE source code from https://github.com/lanl/LATTE. If you download a zipfile or tarball, unpack the tarball either in this /lib/latte directory or somewhere else on your system.

Step 2: Modify makefile.CHOICES

Modify the makefile.CHOICES according to your system architecture and compilers. Check that the MAKELIB flag is ON in makefile.CHOICES and finally, build the code via the make command
