Installation

Requirements:

The Ortlight software package is using Python as underlying framework and runtime. In order to run it, you need a Python installation. We currently recommend Anaconda https://store.continuum.io/cshop/anaconda/, the free version. It is working really well and comes with “pip” a tool to manage extension modules.

Windows Installer

After installing Anaconda Scientific Python, run the Ortlight installer. The installer requires an Internet connection to complete because it needs to install additional packages. It will install the dependencies. the tools and the Python module to your system, including Desktop and start menu links and MIME types.
