Install miniforge

Here you find some instruction on how to install miniforge (the recommended environment to run PyECLOUD).

Download and install the most recent version of Miniforge (from here)

Something like:

wget https://github.com/conda-forge/miniforge/releases/latest/download/Miniforge3-Linux-x86_64.sh
bash Miniforge3-Linux-x86_64.sh

(Provide the path for the installation, in my case /home/giadarol/Desktop/PyFRIENDS_python3/miniforge3 You will be asked whether you want to make this miniconda the default python installation for your computer (this is your choice :-) )

Activate the miniconda installation and install compilers

source /home/giadarol/Desktop/PyFRIENDS_python3/miniforge3/bin/activate

and install the compilers and meson (required for f2py) in newer versions:

conda install compilers meson

Install the required packages

pip install numpy scipy matplotlib h5py cython ipython

Then clone and install PyECLOUD and other packages following the instruction in the page:
