Better installation steps

Closed this issue · 2 comments

The current setup is a bit too involved, so it would be better to either:

  1. Make the instructions very clear, or
  2. Create a makefile or script that handles everything automatically

Seems like converting the program to a package would be quite easy to do.

This would allow dependencies to be included automatically when first running the code. You can also add a "build" step, where SOCRATES would be compiled.

It is also possible to export packages as single binary files, which may be useful in some cases.

This has been implemented in the recent changes, although more improvements could be made from here.
