<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:rgb(31,73,125)" lang="EN-US">VTK is a class library, it means that you build applications using it with another language. First you should know what language you are going
to use. For a newbie start, I recommend Python. <u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:rgb(31,73,125)" lang="EN-US"><u></u> <u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:rgb(31,73,125)" lang="EN-US">Install Python(x,y) package (google it I don't recall the URL). It's a Python bundle that that comes with VTK already. It will allows you to
use all examples that come with the VTK.<u></u><u></u></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:rgb(31,73,125)" lang="EN-US">Otherwise you may have to do some compilation, which is not hard and not so simple :P.<u></u><u></u></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:rgb(31,73,125)" lang="EN-US">What C++ programmers do most of the time is to compile VTK using CMAKE. If you are familiar with C++ and CMAKE, this is the way to go.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
