Setting up a development environment

First, you need to fork the project. Then setup your environment:

# create a new conda environment
conda create -n xeus-cling -c conda-forge -c defaults xtl nlohmann_json cppzmq cpp-argparse pugixml xeus cling
conda activate xeus-cling

# download xeus-cling from your GitHub fork
git clone https://github.com/<your-github-username>/xeus-cling.git

You may also want to install a C++ compiler, and cmake from conda if they are not available on your system.
