Installation

Install package¶

For an optimal use of the microfading package, we recommend you to use the package inside a Jupyter notebook environment. If you are not familiar with such an environment or if Jupyter is not installed on your computer, please first consult the appropriate documentation to install or learn about Jupyter notebooks. We wrote a short introduction section on Jupyter notebooks if you want to know more about it.

You can install the microfading package in 2 different ways:

Inside a terminal or a command prompt

Open a terminal and run the following command:
```
pip install microfading
```
If you wish to install a specific version of the microfading package, the version number can be added to the pip command as illustrated in the following example:
```
pip install microfading==1.0.10
```
Inside a Jupyter notebook

If you are not familiar with terminal interfaces, you can install the package by using a Jupyter notebook. Open a new notebook, write the following command inside a code cell and activate the cell. Don't forget the exclamation mark at the beginning.
```
! pip install microfading
```

Upgrade package¶

Similarly, you can upgrade the package via a terminal or a Jupyter notebook.

# inside a terminal
pip install --upgrade microfading

# inside a notebook
! pip install --upgrade microfading
