| The !SageAppliance is a virtual appliance to run !SageMath in a virtual machine. For a long period of time, this was the only way to use !SageMath under Windows. Note that since Sage 8.0, there is also a [[SageWindows|native SageMath installer for Windows]], thanks to the work of Erik Bray (funded by [[https://opendreamkit.org/|OpenDreamKit]], the Horizon 2020 European Research Infrastructures project #676541). The purpose and features of the native !SageMath installer for Windows and of the !SageAppliance are slightly different: * The !SageMath installer for Windows * installs a version of !SageMath that runs natively in Windows; * has been reported to install easily and to work well; * does not provide a virtual machine running Ubuntu GNU/Linux; * does not allow installing extra packages, so far. * The !SageAppliance * provides a virtual machine running Ubuntu GNU/Linux; * allows to install extra packages; * allows to do development work on !SageMath. Installation instructions for the !SageAppliance are available here * for [[SageAppliance/SageMath-7|SageMath 7.0 and higher]] * for [[SageAppliance/Sage-5-x-or-6-x|Sage 5.0 to !SageMath 6.10]] * for [[SageAppliance/Sage-4|Sage 4.x]] General installation instructions are on [[SageAppliance/Installation]]. |
