Simplehypergraphs can optionally use (among other options) the Python's HyperNetX library so if you want the hypernetx plotting to work you need to install it first along with its all dependent libraries. In Julia command line REPL press ] for the Julia package manager and run:
(v1.10) pkg> add PythonCall CondaPkg
HypernetX will get installed as a dependency described in CondaPkg.toml
For tutorial we also use the Jupyter notebook. The installation instructions are here
Note that recently a new version of HyperNetX has been released, as of today SimpleHyprgraphs.jl requires HyperNetX > 2.4.0.
In Julia command line REPL press ] for the Julia package manager and run:
(v1.10) pkg> add SimpleHypergraphs
