AlphaPeptStats can be used as python library (pip-installation), or Graphical User Interface (either pip-installation or one-click installer). Further we provide a Dockerimage for the GUI.

## Pip Installation

AlphaStats can be installed in an existing Python 3.8/3.9/3.10 environment with a single bash command.

pip install alphastats

For the Graphical User Interface

alphastats gui

AlphaStats can be imported as a Python package into any Python script or notebook with the command import alphastats.

A brief Jupyter notebook tutorial on how to use the API is also present in the nbs folder.

One click Installer for MacOS, Windows and Linux can be found here

## Docker Image

We provide two Dockerfiles, one for the library and one for the Graphical User Interface. The Image can be pulled from Dockerhub
