1. First, a clean Python 3.11 environment is required. If you have not set up the Python environment, follow this guide: How to Setup a Python Environment?

  2. Download Grapycal from our website. It’s recommended to pick the latest version.

    https://resource.grapycal.com/releases/demo/

  3. Unzip the downloaded file. It will be a folder containing Grapycal’s program files and a file named install.py.

  4. Run the following to install Grapycal.

    1
2

    cd <the folder's name>
python install.py

    For example:

    1
2

    cd /home/eri24816/Desktop/grapycal-0.18.0+demo-linux.x86_64/
python install.py

  5. After Grapycal is installed, open it with the command:

    1

    grapycal run

    Here’s some tips when you run Grapycal:

    • Before running grapycal run, always remember to activate the Python environment where Grapycal is installed. Otherwise, the grapycal command doesn’t work.
    • Run grapycal run in any folder you’re comfortable with. Then, your works will be saved in that folder. It’s not recommended to run grapycal run the Grapycal folder you’ve just downloaded, as your work will be mixed up with the program files there.

    In my own computer, it looks like:

Uninstall Grapycal

To uninstall Grapycal, simply remove the Python environment where Grapycal is installed in. If you use conda, run conda remove -n gr --all .
