Installation¶
Web app¶
Use MPACT at app.mpactms.org. There is nothing to install: sign in with your email address and start with the Quick start. This is the recommended way to use MPACT, and the rest of this documentation describes it.
Your own server¶
To keep data on your own computer, work offline, or host MPACT for a lab or a class, run the same web app yourself. See Running your own server.
Standalone desktop app¶
The desktop app is no longer developed
Further development of the Qt-based desktop app has been discontinued in favour of the web version. Existing releases remain available, but new features and fixes go into the web app only.
A standalone Windows build of the desktop app is available from the
releases page. Download the
latest MPACT_v*.zip, extract it, and run MPACT.exe.
The desktop app runs the same analysis as the web app, and .mpct session files
open in either one, so you can move an analysis from the desktop app to the web
app with Open session file....
