Installation

Scelo is a desktop app. Pick your platform:

  • Linux

    apt (verified, auto-updating), AppImage, or .deb.

  • Windows & macOS

    One-click installer, or build the latest on your own machine.

  • First launch

    The runtime check and choosing a workspace.

System requirements

Minimum
OS Linux (x64), Windows 10/11 (x64), macOS 12+ (Apple Silicon)
Disk ~2 GB (the installer bundles a full Python + R runtime)
RAM 8 GB recommended
Network Only for first download and optional hosted AI / the swarm. The core app runs offline.

What's bundled

The installer ships a portable CPython and R with the IA actuarial package set (lifelib, chainladder, climada, forecast, ChainLadder, and more). You do not need Python or R installed on your machine.

A note on "unknown publisher" warnings

Downloaded installers are not yet code-signed, so:

  • Windows SmartScreen and macOS Gatekeeper warn on first launch (choose Run anyway / right-click → Open).
  • A side-loaded Linux .deb shows "third party" in App Center.

The verified, signed way to install on Linux is the apt repository — see Linux. Signed Windows/macOS installers will follow once the code-signing certificates are in place.
