# Test the installation
julia --project=. -e "using Plasm; VIEW(CUBE(1))"

Viewer options

• GLMakie.jl (using internally glfw for desktop)

  • more complicate to use
  • more development by Julia Communinity
  • HUGE problem: takes forever to run. Not a viable option (!)
    • see https://discourse.julialang.org/t/starting-glmakie-takes-very-long/64106/2

• MeshCat.jl (using MeshCat/ThreeJL)

  • no support for 3d text (we can always use alberto's code)
  • no many releases
  • seems the best choice

(OPTIONAL) Julia notebooks

To test notebooks:

• install Microsoft Visual Studio
• install Julia Extension
• Open notebooks/examples.ipynb

For Jupyter Notebooks alternatives see :

using IJulia
notebook(dir=pwd())
# jupyterlab() (OPTIONAL) if you want to install lab

# force to use julia internal jupyter
ENV["JUPYTER"]=""
Pkg.build("IJulia")

exit()

# for Alberto's laptop: use `lab` instead of notebook
# ~/.julia/conda/3/bin/jupyter notebook --ip='*' --NotebookApp.token='' --NotebookApp.password=''
