It's like NAVFIT98, but not as bad.

Note: NAVFITX is still in development.

NAVFITX

NAVFITX is a drop-in replacement for NAVFIT98A.

See here for more information about why NAVFIT98 needs to be replaced.

Installation

The quickest way to use navfitx is to use uv.

Open a terminal on your computer and copy and paste two commands into it. On Windows, open powershell. On MacOS, open Terminal. (If you're on linux, you don't need help)

1. Install uv:
   • Windows: powershell -ExecutionPolicy ByPass -c "irm https://astral.sh/uv/install.ps1 | iex"
   • MacOS or Linux: curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh
2. Close your terminal, then reopen it and run: uvx navfitx to launch NAVFITX.

NOTE: If you see the error This application failed to start because no Qt platform plugin could be initialized. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem., install libxcb-cursor0, then run again. If you see the error ImportError: libodbc.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory, install unixodbc: sudo apt install unixodbc.

Help NAVFITX Succeed

I'd like to see NAVFITX replace NAFIT98A in the fleet. I'm looking for user testimonials from anyone that's used NAVFIT98A or eNavFit in order to answer the "why is this important" when I make the pitch to current NAVFIT98 stakeholders within the Navy. If you have feedback on these programs, please provide it here:

• Provide feedback on NAVFIT98A
• Provide feedback on eNavFit (if you had the chance to use it before it was shut down)

Also please consider giving this repo a ⭐ to help it gain visibility!
