Installing the latest developer version
---------------------------------------

If you are using conda, the easiest way to get all the dependencies installed
when using the developer version is to first install the stable version, which
will pull in all the dependencies, then to remove it and install the developer
version::

conda install -c conda-forge glueviz glue-vispy-viewers
conda remove glueviz glue-vispy-viewers

git clone git://github.com/glue-viz/glue
cd glue
pip install .
cd ..

git clone git://github.com/glue-viz/glue-vispy-viewers
cd glue-vispy-viewers
pip install .
cd ..

If you want to then uninstall the developer versions and install the stable
versions again, you can uninstall the developer versions with::

pip uninstall glueviz glue-vispy-viewers

then install the stable versions with conda.
