The SPWB software can be installed two different ways depending on the user preference:

1. Repo Cloning

If the user has LabVIEW professional 2020 or above, then cloning the repo is the easiest way and gives access to all the open source software. Simply use the standard command

git clone https://github.com/Charette-AI-Group/SPWB.git




2. Windows Installer

The second option consist of using a Windows Installer. In this case the user will be able to install and use the software, but not access the source code since LabVIEW is required for that. This option also assumes that the user has administrator rights to install it. Furthermore, since the download is an *.exe files, Windows 10 or 11 will have a series of security warnings during the download and installation since the installer is not digitally signed. The installer file can be downloaded from this Google drive

Since this file has an "exe" extension, there will probably be some warning to the user so that he can confirm the download is safe. The user will have to first click on the "More Info" button and then accept by pressing "Run Anyway" as shown below. Once the download is runned, further security warning may appear;
