+description = """
+Hydra is an open-source Python framework that simplifies the development of
+research and other complex applications. The key feature is the ability to
+dynamically create a hierarchical configuration by composition and override it
+through config files and the command line. The name Hydra comes from its
+ability to run multiple similar jobs - much like a Hydra with multiple heads.
