Windows installation can be done using the python data science platform Anaconda. If not using Anaconda, Python3 can downloaded directly from the Python3 website.

Option one - Anaconda

1. Install Anaconda with the latest version of Python.

2. Open the Anaconda app.

3. Launch Spyder in Anaconda.

4. Pull the FFC repository from Github using Git, or download the repository from the Github website.

5. Open Spyder, and open FFC as a project.

git clone https://github.com/leogoesger/func-flow.git
cd func-flow

Option two - Install Python3

1. Install Python3, Git and a text editor of your choice.

2. Add Python to your local System Path

   • Locate Python3 from your local computer. Python is usually located in the following folder:

     C:\python3

     or

     C:\Users\your-name\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python36-32

   • Follow the directions in this link from step 2 to the end.

   • Enter the Command Prompt by typing cmd in the search bar, and type python in Command Prompt. You should see the following:

     Python 3.6.4 (v3.6.4:d48ecebad5, Dec 18 2017, 21:07:28)
     [GCC 4.2.1 (Apple Inc. build 5666) (dot 3)] on darwin
     Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
     >>>

   • Type exit() to exit the python shell.

3. Clone your project in Command Prompt using Git:

   git clone https://github.com/leogoesger/func-flow.git
   cd func-flow

4. Create and activate a virtual environment.

   python -m venv my-virtualenv
   my-virtualenv\Scripts\activate

5. Install dependencies using pip.

   pip install -r requirements.txt
