```sh skip theme={null}
mkdir myproject && cd myproject

uv venv --python 3.12
source .venv/bin/activate

# install everything (depending on your use case you might not need all extras,
# check your respective platform guides)
uv pip install 'dimos[misc,sim,visualization,agents,web,perception,unitree,manipulation,cpu]'
```

## Developing on DimOS

```sh skip theme={null}
# this allows getting large files on-demand (and not pulling all immediately)
export GIT_LFS_SKIP_SMUDGE=1
git clone https://github.com/dimensionalOS/dimos.git
cd dimos

# Install all dependency groups (tests, lint, …) so mypy + pytest are
# both available. For self-hosted tests, see docs/development/testing.md.
uv sync --all-groups

# type check
uv run mypy dimos

# tests (around a minute to run)
uv run pytest --numprocesses=auto dimos
```
