Latest commit built with Windows 11, Python 3.12.8, R 4.4.2.

Should be compatible with Windows 10 or 11, Python == 3.12, R>=4.4.0.

Python 3.13 not compatible at this time, until which time dependencies can be resolved properly.

Steps to reproduce

1. Download and install conda or mamba. Assumption is that mamba is available. Alternatively, a regular python 3.12 installation with pip can be used.
2. Build python environment from environment.yml. This particular environment file is supplied by the python package goes2go and gets necessary tech for that. mamba env create -f environment.yml. For maximal compatibility, use one of the next options; this environment file does not lock many package versions and may not be compatible far into the future.
3. Alternatively, the environment_spec.yml is a little more specific with package versions, but also might not be portable to different systems. mamba env create -f environment_spec.yml
4. Alternatively, the pipreqs.txt file contains a minimal set of packages from pip to compose all the content. pip install -r pipreqs.txt
5. Download and install R version 4.4.0 or higher. This can be downloaded from the website, or done through conda or something like chocolatey. Make sure the Rscript.exe is on your path variable.
6. Run setup.R to install requisite packages. .Rprofile specifies binary packages dates drawn from 2024-10-04, from Posit Package Manager. Should be stable for a while so long as PPM remains active.
7. Install ffmpeg>=7.0.0; this can be done through conda or something like chocolatey.
8. Run all the steps in procedure.sh.
