Quasar-1.7.0-Miniconda-x86_64.exe - an installer that can be used without administrative privileges (64 bit).

Quasar-1.7.0-Python3.9.12.dmg - a universal bundle; copy it into your Applications folder.
The package includes python 3.9.12, Orange 3.34.0, Orange-Spectroscopy 0.6.8, numpy 1.23.5, scipy 1.9.3, scikit-learn 1.1.3.
If needed, you can download previous versions from our download archive.
On other platforms, such as Linux, you will need a fairly recent python3 installation. We highly recommend that you create a python virtual environment first. There, install Quasar with pip:
pip install quasar
The above command will install all dependencies except PyQt. Install it with
pip install PyQt5
Then, run Quasar with:
python -m quasar
To open Bruker OPUS files, also install opusFC (only available for some platforms):
pip install opusFC
If you are using python provided by the miniconda / Anaconda distribution, you are almost ready to go.
As with pip, we highly recommend you create a separate environment for your Quasar installation.
Add two new channels:
conda config --add channels conda-forge
conda config --add channels https://quasar.codes/conda/
and set the channel_priority recommended by conda-forge:
conda config --set channel_priority strict
and install the quasar package:
conda install quasar
To open Bruker OPUS files, also install opusFC (only available for some platforms):
conda install opusfc
