The pip install labphew method for installing labphew seems to not yet work, so I cloned the git to my windows 10 laptop. Trying to add the labphew package folder to my python path turned out more difficult that I expected. To get the labphew to work I copied the package's folder to my python site-packages folder. I think adding this procedure as a potential way of installing the package might be helpful.

step 1: find your python packages folder (python -m site --user-site command in your terminal/cmnd prompt will work)
step 2: clone the git
step 3: copy the labphew folder within the cloned git to the site-packages folder of your python installation

To use labphew purely as a dependency one may installs from pypi (pip install labphew).
To develop labphew, clone it to your local pc and install it in editable mode.
To use labphew as a skeleton for your own project one could fork the repository (preferably with your own name to avoid confusion), clone it to local pc and install in editable mode.

note: To install in editable mode, first navigate to directory containing the package directory (i.e. usually the repository directory), in a command line interface, then type: pip install -e .
(notice the dot, which is part of the command)
