The following instructions need to be done in the presented order and are created for the currently available version of CEED and will likely be outdated soon (current date: 12. March, 2014)

Installing the prerequisites

Installing Python

• Get Python 2.7.6 for Windows and install it: https://www.python.org/downloads/
• Add your Python install folder path to the PATH variable in your Windows environment variables, e.g.: A:\Programs\Python27
• Now add the Scripts folder to the PATH environment variable, e.g.: A:\Programs\Python27\Scripts
• Open up Windows PowerShell with admin rights and type "python" - See if you get something written into the console, such as "Python 2.7.6 (default [...]", if this is the case then the install worked.

Installing pip

• Install the latest pip distribution: First download get-pip.py : http://pip.readthedocs.org/en/latest/installing.html
• Open up Windows PowerShell with admin rights, change to the folder to which you downloaded "get-pip.py" by using the "cd" command, e.g.: cd "A:/Downloads/Not porn"
• Type "python get-pip.py" and click enter in the Windows PowerShell
• PowerShell should now install pip
• Afterwards write "pip" and click enter. You should get some sort of information about pip now, if the install succeeded.

Installing pyside

• Now you can install pyside easily with the following command: "pip install -U PySide"
