Installation

Prerequisites

  • Python interpreter
  • Adjust your path
  • Packaging tools

Python interpreter

Install Python for your operating system. Consult the official Python documentation for details.

You can install the Python binaries from python.org. Alternatively on macOS, you can use the homebrew package manager.

$ brew install python3

Adjust your path

Ensure that your bin folder is on your path for your platform. Typically ~/.local/ for UNIX and macOS, or %APPDATA%\Python on Windows. (See the Python documentation for site.USER_BASE for full details.)
