Abstract
The HEP Software Foundation was founded in 2014 to tackle common problems of software development and sustainability for high-energy physics. In this paper we outline the motivation for the founding of the organisation and give a brief history of its development. We describe how the organisation functions today and what challenges remain to be faced in the future.
