Open source codes employing lattice Boltzmann methods

A curated list of some open source frameworks, libraries and softwares employing lattice Boltzmann methods. This list is by no means complete. So if you would like me to add something, please send me a link to sthavishthabr@gmail.com or perform a pull request.
