Installation
Using installers (recommended method)​
On Windows​
When presented with the "Windows protected your PC" popup, click on "More info" and then "Run anyway". Once the installer starts, follow the instructions to complete the installation.
On Mac​
Download and install the Mac Installer and extract it to the desired folder.
Open a terminal
Execute the following command
sudo spctl --master-disable
Enter your admin password when prompted.
This step is necessary to enable running apps downloaded from anywhere on your machine.
To run Zebrazoom, go to the folder where ZebraZoom was extracted and double click on ZebraZoomApp.
On Linux​
Download the Linux zip folder and extract it to the desired folder.
To run ZebraZoom, open a console in that folder and type
./ZebraZoom

General Method​
Download and install Anaconda (scroll down to the bottom of that web page or click on the "Download button" on the top of that page). You may skip this step if you already have python 3.6 or higher installed on your computer.
Restart your computer.
Open the "Anaconda Prompt" or any other terminal.
Type:
pip install zebrazoom
That's it! ZebraZoom is now installed on your computer!
If you want to upgrade to the latest release of ZebraZoom later on, you can type:
pip install zebrazoom --upgrade
To start ZebraZoom, you can now open the Anaconda Prompt or a terminal and type:
python -m zebrazoom
Further recommendations for installation with the general method​
If and only if you are going to use Anaconda extensively to install packages other than ZebraZoom, it can be a good idea to create an Anaconda Environment just for ZebraZoom.
To do this, first create an environment:
conda create -n zebrazoom python=3.8
Then activate the newly created environment:
conda activate zebrazoom
Then install zebrazoom as explained in the previous section ("General method").
pip install zebrazoom
To start ZebraZoom, you can now open the Anaconda Prompt or a terminal and type:
conda activate zebrazoom
python -m zebrazoom
