Conda

Conda

1. For a lightweight experience, install miniconda. This can be done through

   Homebrew (on )Other

   brew install --cask miniconda
   

   Figure it out

2. Then initialise conda:

   conda init "$(basename "${SHELL}")"
   <exit and reopen terminal>
   

3. Create your environment:

   conda create -y -n my_project
   conda activate my_project
   conda config --set auto_activate_base false  # (1)
   conda install -y python=3.10  # (2)
   pip install --upgrade pip
   

   1. Stops automatically activating the base env when opening the terminal.
   2. This project also supports 3.11 - 3.13 if you want to use those instead.

4. And finally, install the requirements:

   cd <root dir of project>
   pip install -r requirements.txt
   pip install -r requirements-dev.txt
