Install Paths¶
Pick one path. Do not mix them unless you have a reason.
Beginner Path¶
Use this if:
- you are new to ORCA
- you want the safest order
- you want more explanation
Go to install-for-beginners.md.
Standard Path¶
Use this if:
- you want the canonical setup flow
- you want step-by-step instructions without extra beginner framing
Go to install.md.
Technical Path¶
Use this if:
- you already use git and shell tools comfortably
- you want the shortest correct path
Go to install-for-technical-users.md.
Decision Boxes¶
If you only want to try ORCA in one project:
- use local install
If you want ORCA available across projects:
- use global install
If you only need to read the framework or contribute to it:
- stay in repo mode
