Added installation instructions for yt #6

Closed RemiLehe closed 7 years ago

RemiLehe commented 7 years ago

The README indicates that openPMD files can be read with version 3.4-dev of yt, but I did not find the instructions for how to install this version. After figuring it out for myself, I thought it might be good to include somewhere.

Is this README a good place? The alternative is to include it in the @C0nsultant 's tutorial notebook.

good point, but actually they are directly on the yt homepage under "get it" - Get yt: from source: http://yt-project.org/#getyt

I would not add install instructions directly in the document but keep a link to the projects (and projects should advertize how to install them), otherwise it is going to be rather longish and always outdated quickly. be aware that yt is currently in the process of switching from mercurial (hg) to git (& github) :)

I would close this if that's ok and update that yt migrated to github
