|

Pyfa is a cross-platform desktop fitting application for EVE online that can be used natively on any platform where python and wxwidgets are available.
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
It provides many advanced features such as graphs and full calculations of any possible combination of modules, fits, etc.
|
||||
## What is it?
|
||||
|
||||
Please see the [FAQ](https://github.com/DarkFenX/Pyfa/wiki/FAQ) for answers to common questions / concerns
|
||||
pyfa, short for **py**thon **f**itting **a**ssistant, allows you to create, experiment with, and save ship fittings without being in game. Open source and written in Python, it is available on any platform where Python 2.x ad wxWidgets are available, including Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux.
|
||||
|
||||
#### A note for Linux users
|
||||
pyfa currently only supports wxPython 2.8. However, there are some distros that have started to support 3.0 and subsequently dropped support for 2.8 altogether (such as Debian Jessie). If this is the case and wxPython 3.0 is the only version installed, the official pyfa releases will not run. You must either find a package for 2.8 or compile it yourself.
|
||||
## Latest Version and Changelogs
|
||||
The latest version along with release notes can always be found on the projects [Releases](https://github.com/DarkFenX/Pyfa/releases) page. pyfa will notify you if you are running an outdated version.
|
||||
|
||||
For Debian Jessie, wxPython 2.8 is available in Sid (the unstable repo). you can use apt-pinning to install select packages from unstable and still keep your stable system. See http://jaqque.sbih.org/kplug/apt-pinning.html for me details.
|
||||
## Installing
|
||||
Windows and OS X users are supplied self-contained builds of pyfa that can be run without additional software. An `.exe` installer is also available for the Windows builds. There is no self-contained package for Linux users, which are expected to run pyfa through their distributions Python interpreter. However, there are a number of third-party packages available that handle the dependencies and updates for pyfa (for example, [pyfa for Arch Linux](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/pyfa/)). Please check your distributions repositories.
|
||||
|
||||
3.0 support is being worked on and can be found on the wx3 branch. It may be stable enough for you, but there are a few bugs related to it. Please see the wx3 label on the GitHub issues area for me information on known issues (biggest one currently is GTK warning spam): https://github.com/DarkFenX/Pyfa/labels/wx3
