System Requirements

Linux

The stable version of TreeLine (3.0.x) requires the following libraries and programs:
• Python (Version 3.5 or higher)
• Qt (Version 5.8 or higher)
• PyQt (Version 5.8 or higher)
• If spell checking capability is desired, either the aspell, ispell or hunspell are required

The above versions of Qt and PyQt are recommended to minimize bugs. Somewhat older versions of Qt and PyQt are still mostly functional. To install with older libraries, use the "-x" option to skip dependency checking.

Windows

Should run on any computer running Windows 8, 10 or 11.

If spell checking capability is desired, an external program is required. Either aspell, ispell or hunspell must be installed.

macOS

Due to a lack of Macs for testing, TreeLine on macOS is not formally supported.

There is a third-party port available on MacPorts.
