        PySyft is a Python library for secure and private Deep Learning. PySyft decouples private data from model training, using
        [Federated Learning](https://ai.googleblog.com/2017/04/federated-learning-collaborative.html),
        [Differential Privacy](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Differential_privacy),
        and [Multi-Party Computation (MPC)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_multi-party_computation) within the main Deep Learning frameworks like PyTorch and TensorFlow. Join the movement on
        [Slack](http://slack.openmined.org/).
        
        ## PySyft in Detail
        
        A more detailed explanation of PySyft can be found in the
        [white paper on arxiv](https://arxiv.org/abs/1811.04017)
        
        PySyft has also been explained in videos on YouTube:
         - [Introduction to PySyft codebase by @andreiliphd](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Zw08_4ufHw)
        
        ## Pre-Installation
        
        Optionally, we recommend that you install PySyft within the
        [Conda](https://docs.conda.io/projects/conda/en/latest/user-guide/overview.html)
        virtual environment, for its simplicity in installation. If you are using
        Windows, we suggest installing [Anaconda and using the Anaconda
        Prompt](https://docs.anaconda.com/anaconda/user-guide/getting-started/) to
        work from the command line.
        
        ```bash
        conda create -n pysyft python=3
        conda activate pysyft # some older version of conda require "source activate pysyft" instead.
        conda install jupyter notebook
        ```
        
        Another alternative is to use python venvs. Those are our preferred
        environments for development purposes. We provide a direct install
        instructions in our makefile.
        
        ```bash
        make venv
        ```
        
        ## Installation
        
        > PySyft supports Python >= 3.6 and PyTorch 1.3
        
        ```bash
        pip install syft[udacity]
        ```
        
        This will auto-install the PyTorch and TF Encrypted
        dependencies, which are required for running the tutorials
        from Udacity's "Secure & Private AI" course (recommended).
        
        You can install syft without these dependencies with the usual
        `pip install syft`, but you will need to install framework
        dependencies (i.e. PyTorch, TensorFlow, or TF Encrypted)
        yourself. If you feel you've received an unexpected
        installation error related to PyTorch or TF Encrypted, please
        open an issue on Github or reach out to `#team_pysyft` in
        Slack.
        
        If you have an installation error regarding zstd, run this command and then re-try installing syft.
        
        ```bash
        pip install --upgrade --force-reinstall zstd
        ```
        If this still doesn't work, and you happen to be on OSX, make
        sure you have [OSX command line tools](https://railsapps.github.io/xcode-command-line-tools.html) installed and try again.
        
        If this still fails, and you are on a Conda environment. It could be
        because conda provides its own compiler and linker tools which might
        conflict with your system's. In that case we recommend to use a python venv
        and try again.
        
        You can also install PySyft from source on a variety of operating systems by following this [installation guide](https://github.com/OpenMined/PySyft/blob/dev/INSTALLATION.md).
        
        ## Run Local Notebook Server
        
        All the examples can be played with by running the command
        
        ```bash
        make notebook
        ```
        
        This assumes you want to use a local virtual environment. It installs it
        independently to the conda environment in case you installed one, or any
        other virtual environment you might have set up.
        
        Once the jupyter notebook launches on your browser select the pysyft
        kernel.
        
        ## Use the Docker image
        
        Instead of installing all the dependencies on your computer,
        you can run a notebook server (which comes with Pysyft
        installed) using [Docker](https://www.docker.com/). All you
        will have to do is start the container like this:
        
        ```bash
        $ docker container run openmined/pysyft-notebook
        ```
        
        You can use the provided link to access the jupyter notebook (the link is only accessible from your local machine).
        
        > **_NOTE:_**
        > If you are using Docker Desktop for Mac, the port needs to be forwarded to localhost. In that case run docker with:
        > ```bash $ docker container run -p 8888:8888 openmined/pysyft-notebook ```
        > to forward port 8888 from the container's interface to port 8888 on localhost and then access the notebook via http://127.0.0.1:8888/?token=...
        
        
        You can also set the directory from which the server will serve notebooks (default is /workspace).
        
        ```bash
        $ docker container run -e WORKSPACE_DIR=/root openmined/pysyft-notebook
        ```
        
        You could also build the image on your own and run it locally:
        
        ```bash
        $ cd docker-images/pysyft-notebook/
        $ docker image build -t pysyft-notebook .
        $ docker container run pysyft-notebook
        ```
        
        More information about how to use this image can be found [on docker hub](https://hub.docker.com/r/openmined/pysyft-notebook)
        
        ## Try out the Tutorials
        
        A comprehensive list of tutorials can be found
        [here](https://github.com/OpenMined/PySyft/tree/master/examples/tutorials)
        
        These tutorials cover how to perform techniques such as
        federated learning and differential privacy using PySyft.

        Also join the rapidly growing community of 5000+ on [Slack](http://slack.openmined.org). The slack community is very friendly and great about quickly answering questions about the use and development of PySyft!
        
        ## Troubleshooting
        
        We have written an installation example in [this colab notebook](https://colab.research.google.com/drive/14tNU98OKPsP55Y3IgFtXPfd4frqbkrxK), you can use it as is to start working with PySyft on the colab cloud, or use this setup to fix your installation locally.
