to generate gene regulatory network code.
JUGRNModelGenerator.jl is organized as a Julia package which can be installed in the package mode of Julia.
Start of the Julia REPL and enter the package mode using the ] key (to get back press the backspace or ^C keys). Then, at the prompt enter:
(v1.1) pkg> add JUGRNModelGenerator
This will install the JUGRNModelGenerator.jl package and the other required packages. JUGRNModelGenerator.jl requires Julia 1.6.x and above.
