Setup instructions

Quick setup for experienced users

If you are working on Mac or Linux and have worked with conda and have git installed, you can copy & paste these lines separately. For all others, we recommend to carefully read the descriptions of individual steps below.

git clone https://github.com/florian-wagner/easygo-inv-course
cd easygo-inv-course
conda install -c conda-forge mamba
mamba env create
conda activate easygo
python3 test_installation.py

To start the tutorial setup, please follow the next steps:

Step 1: Prerequisites

There are a few things you'll need to follow the tutorial:

1. A working Python installation (Anaconda or Miniconda). For details on how to install Anaconda, we refer to: https://docs.anaconda.com/anaconda/install/
2. A modern web browser that works with JupyterLab or Jupyter Notebook (Internet explorer will not work)
3. Intermediate experience in Python programming (Python, numpy, matplotlib, jupyter)

Step 2: Download material for the tutorial

• Windows: Download the course material and unzip it a folder of your choice.
• Mac/Linux: You can do the same as above, or alternatively open a terminal, navigate to a folder of your choice, and execute git clone https://github.com/florian-wagner/easygo-inv-course.

Step 3: Install the tutorial environment

1. Open a terminal (Linux & Mac) or the Anaconda Powershell Prompt (Windows). Navigate to the folder from step 2 (using the cd command) and type:

conda install -c conda-forge mamba
mamba env create

2. Activate the environment in the terminal by typing:

conda activate easygo

3. To test if everything works correctly you can do the following:

python3 test_installation.py

Step 4: Start JupyterLab

1. Windows users: Make sure you set a default browser that is not Internet Explorer.
2. Activate the conda environment: conda activate easygo
3. Start JupyterLab: jupyter lab
4. Jupyter should open in your default web browser.
