Installation on Windows using Anaconda
Dear developers, my name is Mauro Sgroi and I would like to use sfepy to teach FEM. I installed the package using conda. Should I also compile the C modules separately or are they precompiled?
Thanks a lot and best regards, Mauro Sgroi.

No, the conda package is already precompiled. Can you run the test suite successfully?
Best regards, r.
Dear Robert, thanks a lot for the reply. Yes, apart one test reaquiring petsc4py. Is there a parallel implementation for windows? Maybe the docker image?
Best regards, Mauro.

You can try installing petsc4py via conda as well.

Having petsc4py installed correctly (i.e. with working PETSc) should be enough. IIRC the docker image is based on conda too.
The parallelization in sfepy is sort of involved as you need to do lots of things manually (the two parallel examples illustrate how). Alternatively, if your problem is small enough to allow a direct solver, try installing MUMPS and use 'ls.auto_direct' as the linear solver - it is really fast and uses all locally available CPUs.
