QuickView	e3sm-quickview	Download
QuickCompare	e3sm_compareview	Download

Desktop bundle

For standalone application delivery we rely on PyInstaller and Tauri to bundle our Python applications into a standalone graphical application.

The Continuous integration does the building and bundling of those, therefore, you will need to download such application from the release page on Github.

macOS requirement On macOS you will need to unquarantine the binary as

we are not signing it. To do so, you will need to run in your terminal the following line.

xattr -d com.apple.quarantine <your_filename>.dmg

Then the first execution will take a while as macOS check and validate the full application file tree.

Conda installation

As our application depend on ParaView and Python we rely on conda to deliver a easy to use setup.

conda create --name quickview-env python=3.13
conda activate quickview-env
conda install e3sm-quickview # replace with application name

macOS specificity On macOS, the first execution will also take a

while as the system validate each python file for security. But any following execution should be very quick.
