You can install napari-kics via pip:

pip install napari-kics

This will install all required dependencies as well. We recommend installing it in a virtual environment, e.g. using conda:

conda create -n kics python
conda activate kics
pip install napari-kics

We recommend using mamba as a faster alternative to conda.
