OSX

Most OSX issues we've seen stem from compiler issues. Please make sure you have a functioning C/C++ compiler before trying to install/use Devito.

Windows

We haven't tested devito on Windows but you're welcome to try. We suggest one of the following approaches:

Windows Subsystem for Linux

  • Enable the windows subsystem for Linux following the instructions here
  • Get a working bash shell on ubuntu (through WSL)
  • Install conda and gcc
  • Proceed with the devito conda-based install instructions

Docker

  • Install Docker using the instructions here
  • Ensure that git config --global core.autocrlf false is set to prevent modification of line endings when cloning the repository
  • Proceed with the devito docker-based install instructions

Virtual Machine

  • Follow the instructions here to install Ubuntu inside a virtual machine on windows.
  • Install conda and gcc
  • Proceed with the devito conda-based install instructions
