Get It

Clone and run

EdiTidE can be run directly from the sources.

Check where your Python user-site is located:

python3 -m site --user-site

Create the folder if it doesn’t exist, and from there clone the official git repository:

git clone https://framagit.org/editide/editide.git

Then follow the instructions from INSTALL.md to complete the setup.

System install from sources

The system install uses meson as build system.

git clone --recurse-submodules https://framagit.org/editide/releases.git
cd releases/
sh ./patch_version.sh
meson setup _build
meson compile -C _build
meson install -C _build

Install with pip

Python wheel packages are automatically built by Gitlab’s CI.

The latest one can be downloaded here:

https://framagit.org/editide/releases/-/jobs/artifacts/main/browse/dist/?job=build-wheel

Then install it with:

python3 -m pip install *.whl

Install with Flatpak

A Flatpak manifest is provided with the sources. It can be used to generate a bundle.

The default permissions are restricted to the minimum, to ensure a good process isolation. Because of that, some features may not be fully available, among them: the external modifications detection, editorconfig, git features, and the compliance with system settings.
