    <p>Dear Prabhu,</p>
    <p>Big favour to ask: could you build wheels for running VTK
      headless i.e. offscreen rendering? I think the option to support
      this is VTK_OPENGL_HAS_OSMESA (see
      <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://www.vtk.org/Wiki/VTK/Examples/Cxx/Utilities/OffScreenRendering">https://www.vtk.org/Wiki/VTK/Examples/Cxx/Utilities/OffScreenRendering</a>).</p>
    <p>That would be a very big help. I've seen loads of queries on how
      to do this but almost no clear solutions.</p>
    <p>Then running VTK in headless mode would be as simple as first
      doing:</p>
    <p>pip install vtk-headless</p>
    <p>... then you're off to the races!<br>

      <p><tt>Just a small announcement that we now have VTK-8.1.0 wheels
          available on pypi (for OSX, Linux, and Windows). Installing
          VTK (on a 64 bit OS), is now as simple as:</tt></p>
      <p><tt> $ pip install vtk</tt></p>
