It is developed within the framework of [ESA](https://www.esa.int/ESA)'s [Gaia mission](https://www.esa.int/Science_Exploration/Space_Science/Gaia) to chart more than 1 billion stars.\n\nA part of Gaia Sky is described in the paper [Gaia Sky: Navigating the Gaia Catalog](https://dx.doi.org/10.1109/TVCG.2018.2864508).\n\n\nTo get the latest up-to-date and most complete information,\n\n*  Visit our [**home page**](https://gaiasky.space)\n*  Read the [**official documentation**](http://docs.gaiasky.space) ([PDF version](https://gaia.ari.uni-heidelberg.de/gaiasky/docs-pdf))\n*  Submit a [**bug** or a **feature request**](https://codeberg.org/gaiasky/gaiasky/issues)\n*  Follow development news at [@gaiasky.bsky.social](https://bsky.app/profile/gaiasky.bsky.social) or [#GaiaSky@mastodon](https://mastodon.social/tags/GaiaSky)\n\nThis file contains the following sections:\n\n1.

Installation instructions and requirements\n\n### 1.1. Requirements\n\n| Component             | Minimum requirement                                           |\n|-----------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------|\n| **Operating system**  | Linux / Windows 10+ / macOS                                   |\n| **Architecture**      | x86_64, ARM (only Apple silicon through compat layer)         |\n| **CPU**               | Intel Core i5 3rd Generation. 4+ cores recommended            |\n| **GPU**               | Support for OpenGL 3.3 (4.2 recommended), 1 GB VRAM           |\n| **Memory**            | 4+ GB RAM (depends on loaded datasets)                        |\n| **Hard drive**        | 1+ GB of free disk space (depends on downloaded datasets)     |\n\n### 2. Pre-built packages\n\nThis is the Gaia Sky source repository. We recommend using the [pre-built packages](https://gaiasky.space/downloads) for the different Operating Systems in case you want a stable and hassle-free experience.\n\n\n### 3. Development branch\n\nIn order to compile and run Gaia Sky using the `master` branch sources, you need the following installed in your system:\n\n- `JDK`, latest LTS version recommended\n- `git`\n\nFirst, clone the [Gaia Sky repository](https://codeberg.org/gaiasky/gaiasky):\n\n```console\ngit clone https://codeberg.org/gaiasky/gaiasky.git\n```\n\nThen, run Gaia Sky (Linux, macOS) with the provided script:\n\n```console\ncd gaiasky\n./gaiasky\n```\n\nOn Windows, open PowerShell, make sure your `$JAVA_HOME` environment variable points to a valid JDK installation, and run:\n\n```batchfile\n.\\gradlew.bat core:run\n```\n\nEt voilà! The bleeding edge Gaia Sky is running in your machine.\n\n\n### 3.1 CLI arguments\n\nRun `gaiasky -h` or `man gaiasky` to find out about how to launch Gaia Sky and what arguments are accepted.\n\nIf running directly with gradle, you can add arguments using the gradle `--args` flag, like this: \n\n```\ngradlew core:run --args='-h'\n```\n\n### 3.2 Getting the data\n\nAs of version `2.1.0`, Gaia Sky offers an integrated way to download and manage all datasets and catalogs from within the application. The dataset manager, accessible from the welcome screen, enables browsing and downloading available datasets, and enabling and disabling already installed/downloaded datasets.\n\nYou can also download the **datasets manually** [here](https://gaia.ari.uni-heidelberg.de/gaiasky/repository/). Once downloaded, the datasets, which usually come in `.tar.gz` packages, can be extracted directly in the [Gaia Sky data directory](https://gaia.ari.uni-heidelberg.de/gaiasky/docs/master/Folders.html#dataset-location).\n\n##  4. Gaia Sky VR\n\nGaia Sky VR works with [OpenXR](https://registry.khronos.org/OpenXR/)-enabled runtimes to interface with virtual reality sets. \n\nRun Gaia Sky in VR using the `-vr` flag from the CLI, or, on Windows, run the `gaiaskyvr.exe` file.\n\n```console\ngaiasky -vr\n```\n\nThe most up-to-date information on Gaia Sky VR, as well as how to install and run it, is available in the official documentation:\n\n- [Gaia Sky VR documentation](https://gaia.ari.uni-heidelberg.de/gaiasky/docs/master/Gaia-sky-vr.html)\n\n\n##  5.
