Installation

Quickstart

1. Download and install your preferred package manager:

   uv (Recommended)Anaconda / Miniforge

   Visit the uv installation page and follow the instructions for your operating system.

   Visit the Anaconda download page or Miniforge page and install.

   Warning

   Anaconda requires a license for companies with >200 employees (academic institutions are excluded). If this applies to you, use Miniforge instead.

2. Create a virtual environment and install Simmate:

   uvconda

   uv venv my_env
   source my_env/bin/activate  # On Windows use: my_env\Scripts\activate
   uv pip install simmate
   

   conda create -n my_env -c conda-forge python=3.11 simmate
   conda activate my_env
   

3. Verify the installation:

   simmate --help
