Quantum Espresso is a opensource code for studying the electronic properties of materials. Installation of Quantum Espresso had been a difficult task earlier for new comers (now I believe that it is easy)
In this guide, I provide an easy way to install Quantum Espresso in Ubuntu 16.04. The hardware requirements can be seen here.
First check whether you have a FORTRAN complier (gfortran is a free FORTRAN compiler which is available in Ubuntu by default)
