Installation for users

Use python3.10 or python3.11, as some tools like kfactory are not available for older versions of python. We recommend VSCode as an IDE.

If you don't have python installed on your system you can download anaconda

Once you have python installed, open Anaconda Prompt as Administrator and then install the latest gdsfactory using pip.

anaconda prompt

pip install gvtt --upgrade

Then you need to restart Klayout to make sure the new technology installed appears.
