Currently, BornAgain requires Python version between 3.8 and 3.11.
Run the installer and follow the steps.
To use BornAgain GUI application, the installation directory should be added to the system PATH:
Ensure that pip package manager is checked for installation. Command
$ python -m ensurepip
will install pip if it is missing.
With Anaconda Python the requirements for versions 3.8 and 3.9 are more restrictive:
compatibility is confirmed for Python 3.8.x>=3.8.15 and for 3.9.x>=3.9.15
Note that the path to directory which includes the Python platform should be added to the system PATH.
On Windows, Anaconda is installed by default under C:\Users\<username>\Anaconda3\ where <username> is the name of the current user account.
Different Python versions are stored in sub-directories of Anaconda’s root path;
see the official Anaconda documentation for further details.
