If you have downloaded a binary version of ParaView, you may proceed as follows.

- Install meshio for the Python major version that ParaView uses (check `pvpython --version`)
- Open ParaView
- Find the file `paraview-meshio-plugin.py` of your meshio installation (on Linux:
`~/.local/share/paraview-5.9/plugins/`) and load it under _Tools / Manage Plugins / Load New_
- Check the version of Python provided by ParaView: `./bin/pvpython -c "import sys; print(sys.version)"`
- Install meshio for that Python version in a dedicated directory: `python3 -m pip install --only-binary=:all: --python-version 3.10.13 --target /path/to/directory meshio`
- Recover [paraview-meshio-plugin.py](https://github.com/nschloe/meshio/blob/main/tools/paraview-meshio-plugin.py)
- run ParaView with `PYTHONPATH=/path/to/directory/ ./bin/paraview`
- In _Tools / Manage Plugins / Load New_, select `paraview-meshio-plugin.py` and load it
- _Optional:_ Activate _Auto Load_

You can now open all meshio-supported files in ParaView.
