Building:
You should be able to simply open IronLab.sln and build the solution: all dependencies are included as dlls. This will build into IronLab\bin by default. You will need to put the contents of the IronPython Lib folder into IronLab\bin\Lib yourself if you want the various modules to be present. Without this, for example, typing "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" will not do much, no matter what the start-up text might say!

Prerequisites:
IronLab uses .NET 4.0. It may be necessary to update DirectX by downloading and running the DirectX Redistributable. This is because IronLab uses the managed wrapper to DirectX, SlimDX, which may demand an updated DirectX. 

Getting started with NumPy/SciPy:
Copy your IronPython 2.7 installation folders (including NumPy and SciPy)
DLLs, Doc, Lib into the build bin directory.
copy ILabPythonLib\ironplot folder into the newly copied bin\Lib\site-packages
Try:
import numpy as np
import ironplot as ip
ip.plot(np.sin(np.arange(0, 10, 0.1)))
then Examples\NumpyPlot content

ILNumerics support is now deprecated.
