 ## Installation
+Create a virtual environment for python 3.10:
+```
+conda create --name fm_env python==3.10
+```
+### Activate your environment:
+```
+conda activate fm_env
+```
+
+And now set python interpreter paths and install dependencies
+```
+cd franka_mujoco
+pip install -e .
+pip install -r requirements.txt
+```
+
+### Create an fm_env alias
+For convenience, you can create an alias in your .bashrc/.zshrc file to quickly load the environment and cd to a desired folder:
+```
+gedit ~/.bashrc # or gedit ~/.zshrc
 
-All essential libraries with corresponding versions are listed in [`requirements.txt`](requirements.txt).
+# Go to the last line and type
+alias fm_env="conda activate fm_env; cd ~/code/franka_mujoco"
+# Save and exit your file
+
+# Activate new .bashrc file by calling the following command in your terminal
+source .bashrc # or source .zshrc
+```
