Installation Overview
Naomi is based on the Jasper framework and is fully written in Python. As such, it only depends on a python installation, which is available for many platforms. Naomi can be executed on different versions of macOS and Windows and many different variants of Linux (Ubuntu, Raspbian, ...).
Please be aware of the fact, that Naomi is programmed on a new base and introduces new concepts. Therefore, tutorials and help you may find on the internet for Jasper WILL be outdated!
