Installation
Installation for users
If you are on Windows, I recommend you install gdspy with Anaconda3, Miniconda3 or mambaforge (faster conda alternative) and pip
for gdsfactory.
mamba install gdspy -y
pip install ubcpdk --upgrade
gf tool install
If you want to get all the extras (mode solvers, meep, circuit simulation ...)
mamba install gdspy -y
mamba install pymeep=*=mpi_mpich_* -y
pip install ubcpdk --upgrade
gf tool install
Mamba is a faster alternative to conda, if you don't want to install mamba, you can also replace mamba install gdspy -y
with conda install -c conda-forge gdspy -y
If you use linux or MacOs you can install directly from pip pip install ubcpdk
specify a specific version pip install ubcpdk==1.6.3
and update to the latest version with pip install ubcpdk --upgrade
I also recommend you install the gdsfactory link to klayout gf tool install
