🏃🏼‍♂️ Quick start

polars-bio is available on PyPI and can be installed with pip:

pip install polars-bio

There are binary versions for Linux (x86_64), MacOS (x86_64 and arm64) and Windows (x86_64). In case of other platforms, you can build polars-bio from source with maturin:

RUSTFLAGS="-Ctarget-cpu=native" maturin build --release -m Cargo.toml

and you should see the following output:

Tip

Python>=3.9, Rust compiler and Cargo are required to build the package from source. rustup is the recommended way to install Rust.
