Setup and Installation

This workshop uses a Python environment managed with pixi, and Jupyter notebooks. Unlike the GUI workshop, which uses the napari bundled app, here you run napari from a Python environment you set up on your own machine.

Setup¶

1. Install pixi for running the workshop environment with a single command; see the pixi installation page.

2. Download the workshop files as a ZIP and unpack them, or clone the repository with git. All data files used in this workshop are included in the workshop files you downloaded — you do not need to download anything separately.

3. Open a terminal in that folder and run:

pixi run -e extend napari

A napari window 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()
