System Requirements

GroupDocs.Comparison for Python via .NET is a self-contained Python wheel; it does not require a separate .NET installation. The .NET runtime is bundled.

Supported operating systems

GroupDocs.Comparison runs on 64-bit Windows, Linux, and macOS. Per-platform wheels are published.

Windows

  • Windows 10 (x64)
  • Windows 11 (x64)
  • Windows Server 2016, 2019, 2022, 2025

Linux

  • Ubuntu 20.04+, Debian 11+, Fedora 36+, CentOS Stream 9+ — any glibc-based distribution that meets the manylinux baseline.
  • Native dependencies: libgdiplus, libfontconfig1, libicu-dev, ttf-mscorefonts-installer — see Installation.

macOS

  • macOS 12 Monterey or later, on Intel x64 or Apple Silicon (arm64).
  • Native dependencies: mono-libgdiplus via Homebrew.

Supported Python versions

GroupDocs.Comparison for Python via .NET supports CPython 3.5 through 3.14. The package is published as platform-specific wheels for each supported Python version.

python --version    # Should print 3.5.x or higher

Hardware requirements

  • CPU: any 64-bit x86 (x64) or ARM (arm64) processor.
  • RAM: at least 1 GB free. Large documents and high-DPI conversions benefit from more.
  • Disk: the wheel itself is ~150 MB. Allow ample temporary space for the documents being compared.

Development environments

Any Python IDE or text editor works — VS Code, PyCharm, Cursor, Sublime Text, vim, etc. AI assistants such as Claude Code, Cursor, and GitHub Copilot have first-class support via the bundled AGENTS.md and the MCP server.
