On Windows, nowadays (Windows 10) GROMACS is either
compiled and run:
- as a native Windows program through the MS Visual Studio 2017
x64 tool-chain and Windows-cmake (https://cmake.org/download/).
This allows (in theory) for GPU accelerated runs (Nvidia CUDA)
but appears broken since v.2018 (and v.2019 beta). Without
CUDA, compilation and run worked flawlessly last time I checked.
- within the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) which provides
a quasi-native Ubuntu 18.04 running on the Windows file system
(https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/install-win10),
and allows for a "standard Linux build". WSL also has a bash
and every other tool available in Ubuntu.
