    you can check whether you have Python 3 and Node.js by running

    python --version
    node --version

    If it does not output a version number, that means you don't have the corresponding package installed.

    Note that you need to have your Python version at least 3.3 and Node.js version at least 10.0.0.

  2. Download AISpace2 and unzip the file in the folder where you want to store it.
    • Windows: Right click on the installation scripts installScriptsWindows.bat inside the /installScripts/ directory and choose Run as administrator (enter y to confirm if prompted).
    • MacOS or Linux: Run the following command lines (enter y to confirm if prompted):
      sh /PATH/TO/FOLDER/installScripts/installScripts.sh

Launch

  1. After the installation, the JupyterLab will automatically open.

    In the future if you want to run AISpace2, simply run the following command line:

    in the /AISpace2/ (not /aispace2/) directory.

    (Or, for Windows, simply right click on the run-AISpace2 scripts runAISpace2ScriptsWindows.bat inside the /installScripts/ directory and choose Run as administrator.)

  2. After opening AISpace2 in the browser, you can find the file browser in the left sidebar Files tab.
