Installation

Tip

  • For Windows users with relatively little experience with Python, we warmly recommend to use the Anaconda distribution. Anaconda is an all-in-one package containing the Python compiler, an integrated desktop environment (Spyder) and plenty of useful Python packages such as numpy and matplotlib.

  • PPMIL plays nicely with the PyLebedev and PyTessel packages which we install together with the ppmil package.

PPMIL is distributed via both Anaconda package as well as PyPI. For Windows, it is recommended to install PPMIL via Anaconda, while for Linux, we recommend to use PyPI.

PyPI

To install PPMIL, create a separate Python environment:

python -m venv .venv

and install PPMIL via:

ppmil install
