Setup and Installation

This page walks you through setting up your environment for the napari express 🚀 workshop. We recommend using a Python environment managed with uv or pixi.

Prerequisites¶

• Git for cloning the repository (can also use a git GUI like GitHub Desktop)

• either uv or pixi for environment management and running scripts.

Setup¶

Choose your preferred method (uv or pixi):

git clone https://github.com/napari/workshops.git
cd workshops
uv sync --group express
uv run napari

git clone https://github.com/napari/workshops.git
cd workshops
pixi run -e express napari

A napari window similar to the one below should open. If it does, your environment is ready for the workshop!

import napari
from napari.utils import nbscreenshot
viewer = napari.Viewer()

nbscreenshot(viewer)

viewer.close()
