Installation of dependencies

First, please have Conda installed on your computer. If it's not installed, please install Miniforge3, which includes Conda and a conda-forge based Python environment. You can install Miniforge3 using the following command:

wget "https://github.com/conda-forge/miniforge/releases/latest/download/Miniforge3-$(uname)-$(uname -m).sh"
bash Miniforge3-$(uname)-$(uname -m).sh
rm Miniforge3-$(uname)-$(uname -m).sh

Close and reopen your shell, and run:

# Prevent Conda from polluting your environment when you're not working on Conda-managed projects.
conda config --set auto_activate_base false

Now, you can use Conda to install the dependencies.

mamba env create -f environment.yml
mamba activate NewDocumentation

If you modify environment.yml, please run

mamba env update -f environment.yml

Occassionally, you should update all the packages to the latest versions:

mamba activate NewDocumentation
mamba update --all
