##### This is the fastest build you can get if you have a discrete NVIDIA or AMD GPU.

###### These Pre-builts are perfect for non-technical users or those who don't have time to, or can't manually install all the requirements. Just a heads-up: this is an open-source project, so you can also install it manually. This will be 60 days ahead on the open source version.

**4. Install Dependencies**

We highly recommend using a `venv` to avoid issues.


For Windows:

```bash
python -m venv venv
venv\Scripts\activate
pip install -r requirements.txt

For Linux:

```bash
# Ensure you use the installed Python 3.10
python3 -m venv venv

**Important Notes for macOS:**

- You **must** use Python 3.10, not newer versions like 3.11 or 3.13
- Always run with `python3.10` command not just `python` if you have multiple Python versions installed
- If you get error about `_tkinter` missing, reinstall the tkinter package: `brew reinstall [email protected]`
- If you get model loading errors, check that your models are in the correct folder
- If you encounter conflicts with other Python versions, consider uninstalling them:

```bash
# List all installed Python versions
brew list | grep python

# Uninstall conflicting versions if needed
brew uninstall --ignore-dependencies [email protected] [email protected]

# Keep only Python 3.10
brew cleanup
