Installing the ML-Agents Toolkit

As a first step, we need to download the toolkit. We can do this by cloning the repository with the following command:

git clone --branch release_19 https://github.com/Unity-Technologies/ml-agents.git

This command creates an ml-agents folder in your current folder. The ML-Agents Toolkit is composed of two main components:

• A Python package containing the Python interface for Unity and PyTorch's trainers (stored in the ml-agents folder)
• A Python package containing the interface with OpenAI Gym (https://gym.openai.com/), a toolkit for training reinforcement learning agents (stored in the gym-unity folder).
