Installing LEDfx Windows

To get started on Windows it is highly recommended that you use Anaconda to make installation of Cython components easier.

Install Microsoft Visual Studio

https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/downloads/

Start Anaconda

Once open, start a terminal session and run the following:

conda create -n ledfx
conda activate ledfx

Install LedFx and all the dependencies using pip and the conda package manager

conda config --add channels conda-forge
conda install aubio portaudio pywin32
pip install pipwin
pipwin install pyaudio
pip install ledfx

Launch LedFx (with the ‘open-ui’ option to launch the browser):

ledfx --open-ui
