A step-by-step guide to environment setup, installing Git, and cloning the Ace-Step 1.5 repository to run it locally.
Advantages of Using UV
UV automatically creates an isolated virtual environment. This is crucial to ensure the Ace-Step installation doesn't interfere with other AI tools or existing global Python libraries on your computer.
Hardware Requirements
While it is recommended to run Ace-Step 1.5 using a GPU (graphics card), it can still be run using only the CPU, though performance will be slower.
PowerShell Tips
Ensure you always run PowerShell as an Administrator during the installation phase of system tools like UV to avoid 'permission denied' issues.
