If you want help develop pyflct you will need to install it from GitHub. The best way to do this is to create a new python virtual environment (of your choice) and then fork this repository.

Then:

$ git clone https://github.com/<username>/pyflct.git
$ cd pyflct
$ pip install -e .[dev]

You will need to install your operating system’s FFTW3 development library. You might need to pip install extension_helpers if there is an error about it being missing.

You can run:

$ python setup.py build_ext --inplace

to build the C extension in place.
