# Package management
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- It is better to use `conda` (the package manager that comes with `anaconda`), since this makes it easier to work with conflicting package libraries (a bit like a package lock).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- The alternative is the native `pip` but you have to create virtual environments (`venv`) to manage packages at different versions.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
It works a bit like this:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To make use of virtual environments in `pip` you have to create the virtual environment before installing anything:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
python3 -m venv venv3
|
||
|
|
source venv3/bin/activate
|
||
|
|
pip [library_name]
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- pypi.org > is package registry like NPM
