For Windows, it is recommended to run this app on a Linux emulation layer such as the Git Bash terminal. See the "Instructions for Git Bash" section for details. In addition to Git Bash, make sure you also have Python3 and Pip3 as described below.
For Mac and Linux, this app should work out of the box on the Linux or Mac terminal, but make sure you also have Python3 and Pip3 as described below.
Requirements:
- Python3 (version 3.7 or greater) - Install Python3 here: [https://www.python.org/downloads/]. Check version with:
python3 --version
. - Pip3 (version 20.2.1 or greater) - Make sure to install python3-pip in order to use pip install. Check version with:
pip3 --version

git clone https://github.com/wdeng5120/vie.git
cd vie
pip3 install -e .
To uninstall this app:
pip3 uninstall vie
- If you used the local install option, you will also want to delete the
.egg-info
