# Installation

**Note:** to ensure that your installation is compatible with your local
accelerators such as a GPU, we recommend to first follow the corresponding
instructions to install [JAX](https://github.com/jax-ml/jax#installation).

## Option 1: Static Installation

This option is preferred for the purpose of re-using functionalities of our
library without modifying them. The library package can be installed by running
the following command-line:

```
pip install git+https://github.com/google-deepmind/jax_privacy
```

This will not install the training pipeline.

## Option 2: Local Installation

This option is preferred to either build on top of our codebase, or to reproduce
our results using the training pipeline.

*   The first step is to clone the repository:

```
git clone https://github.com/google-deepmind/jax_privacy
```

*   Then the code can be installed. We recommend local installation so
    modifications to the code are reflected in imports of the package:

```
cd jax_privacy
pip install -e .
```
