Installation

One-line Install

Run the command for your operating system:

curl -LsSf https://simmate.org/install.sh | sh
powershell -ExecutionPolicy ByPass -c "irm https://simmate.org/install.ps1 | iex"

Then restart your terminal and verify the installation with simmate --help.

Note

This installs uv and the simmate command, including all optional app dependencies. To import Simmate in your own Python scripts or Spyder, follow the Quickstart below instead.

Quickstart

  1. Download and install your preferred package manager:

    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:

    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=3.13 simmate
    conda activate my_env
    
  3. Verify the installation:

    simmate --help
