# Installation guide

## PyPI

We recommend to install `cell-decipher` to a new conda environment with [RAPIDS](https://docs.rapids.ai/install) dependencies.

```sh
mamba create -n decipher -c conda-forge -c rapidsai -c nvidia python=3.11 rapids=25.06 'cuda-version>=12.0,<=12.8' -y && conda activate decipher
pip install cell-decipher
install_pyg_dependencies
```

```{note}
RAPIDS is only available at NVIDIA Volta or newer GPU with specific driver version. Please check official [website](https://docs.rapids.ai/install) for more details.
```

`RAPIDS` is not coercive, but it is highly recommended to install it for acceleration. If you do not want to install it or meet unexpected errors, just run:

```sh
mamba create -n decipher python==3.11 -c conda-forge -y && conda activate decipher
pip install cell-decipher
install_pyg_dependencies
```
