@videlec should veerer still support to run without SageMath? |
|
Good question. It is doable to have veerer in pure python but also extra work to maintain. |
I don't think it's worth it. Who would want to use veerer in a context where SageMath is not viable? I mean, it doesn't solve a non-mathematical problem (like cysignals say) and if somebody for some reason wanted to use it from Mathematica or something like that, I guess they could be bothered to also install SageMath somehow. It's a substantial hurdle for sure but unless I am mistaken the possible user community is very small for veerer in the first place. |
we concluded that it's unrealistic that somebody needs this package without being able to install SageMath. The effort to maintain such a package is too high for such an unlikely use case (it's essentially Windows users…)
