📦 Installation

Prerequisites for Windows

Before installing TMU on Windows, ensure you have the MSVC build tools. Follow these steps:

1. Download MSVC build tools
2. Install the Workloads → Desktop development with C++ package. (Note: The package size is about 6-7GB.)

Dependencies

Ubuntu: sudo apt install libffi-dev

Installing TMU

To get started with TMU, run the following command:

# Installing Stable Branch
pip install git+https://github.com/cair/tmu.git

# Installing Development Branch
pip install git+https://github.com/cair/tmu.git@dev

🛠 Development

If you're looking to contribute or experiment with the codebase, follow these steps:

1. Clone the Repository:

   git clone -b dev git@github.com:cair/tmu.git && cd tmu

2. Set Up Development Environment: Navigate to the project directory and compile the C library:

   # Install TMU
    pip install .
   
   # (Alternative): Install TMU in Development Mode
    pip install -e .
   
   # Install TMU-Composite
    pip install .[composite]
   
   # Install TMU-Composite in Development Mode
    pip install -e .[composite]

3. Starting a New Project: For your projects, simply create a new branch and then within the 'examples' folder, create a new project and initiate your development.
