Installation

You can install all plugins with:

pip install "gplugins[database,devsim,femwell,gmsh,schematic,meow,meshwell,ray,sax,tidy3d]" --upgrade

Or Install only the plugins you need pip install gplugins[schematic,femwell,meow,sax,tidy3d] from the available plugins:

Separate installation (not using pip):

• For Meep and MPB you need to use conda or mamba on MacOS, Linux or Windows WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux) with conda install pymeep=*=mpi_mpich_* -c conda-forge -y
