Quickstart ======================================================= Install ------- Stable installation +++++++++++++++++++ For most users, the OpenFlexure Microscope software should be installed using our `pre-built Raspbian SD card image. `_ Manual installation +++++++++++++++++++ For offline (i.e. no real microscope connected) development, a basic development server can run on any system. - (Recommended) create and activate a virtual environment - Install non-python dependencies with ``sudo apt-get install libatlas-base-dev libjasper-dev libjpeg-dev`` - Install `Poetry `_, clone this repo, and ``poetry install`` from inside the repo. Managing the server ------------------- Managing the server through the installer script's CLI is documented `on our website `_. This includes starting the server as a background service, as well as starting a development server with real-time debug logging.
