### Installation for users

Use python3.10 or python3.11, as some tools like kfactory are not available for older versions of python. We recommend [VSCode](https://code.visualstudio.com/) as an IDE.

If you don't have python installed on your system you can [download anaconda](https://www.anaconda.com/download/)

Once you have python installed, open Anaconda Prompt as Administrator and then install the latest gdsfactory using pip.

```

pip install gvtt --upgrade

```

Then you need to restart Klayout to make sure the new technology installed appears.

```
