I am trying to install simplefocstudio but am stuck on step 2 below. It says, " Clone this repository or download the zip file". What repository is it talking about?
## Installation
Don’t worry, _Simple **FOC** Studio_ is easy to install even if you have never used the terminal before! 😃 There are just couple of steps to take:
1. Install Python if you don’t have it installed yet
- We suggest to use Anaconda. [Here is how to install it.](https://docs.anaconda.com/anaconda/install/)
- Once you have your Anaconda running open your terminal (on windows anaconda prompt) and run:
```auto
conda create -n simplefoc python=3.6.0
```
- Once this is done you will never have to run that command again, from now on you will just need:
```auto
conda activate simplefoc
```
1. Clone this repository or download the zip file
2. Enter the folder containing the repository using the terminal
- the command will be something like this:
```auto
cd some_path_on_disk/SimpleFOCStudio
```
1. Final step of the installation is installing all the necessary libraries for the _Simple **FOC** Studio_ :
```auto
pip install -r "requirements.txt"
```

It’s talking about the git repo.
There are 2 options you can download:
[https://github.com/simplefoc/SimpleFOCStudio](https://github.com/simplefoc/SimpleFOCStudio)

For me, the one by JorgeMaker worked better, but your mileage may vary.
