Instructions

Step 1: Extract the ZIP file

Extract the repository ZIP file into a directory on your computer.

Note

The resulting directory should contain a file called UV.exe. If this is missing (or if you are running on a platform other than Windows) you can download it from https://github.com/astral-sh/uv/releases: simply select the correct platform and extract the uv executable into the AI-RC directory.

Step 2: Install the Microsoft C++ runtime libraries

If using Windows, download and install the latest Microsoft Visual C++ runtime libraries from https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/windows/latest-supported-vc-redist.

Step 3: Start Jupyter

To view the tutorials, open a command prompt, navigate to the directory and run:

uv run jupyter-notebook

Note

If using PowerShell or bash, you may need to specify the path to uv by typing ./uv intsead of uv.

The first time you run this, it will install Python (if necessary) and the relevant dependent packages, and create a virtual environment. Subsequent times will not require this and so will be much quicker.
