Advanced installation
#### Important Notes
1. If you are new to Python or the Scientific Python ecosystem, we recommend you to install and use [Anaconda](https://www.anaconda.com/download/). It comes with Spyder and all its dependencies, along with the most important Python scientific libraries (i.e. Numpy, Pandas, Matplotlib, IPython, etc) in a single, easy to use environment.
2. We also support `pip`, but please be aware that `pip` installations are for advanced users with good knowledge of all Spyder dependencies. Because of that, all installation problems you encounter are expected to be solved by you.
#### Anaconda
You can easily install this version if you use Anaconda by closing Spyder and then running the following command in a system terminal (Anaconda Prompt on Windows, `xterm` on Linux or `Terminal.app` on macOS):
conda create -n spyder-env -c conda-forge python=3.11
conda activate spyder-env
conda install -c conda-forge spyder=6.1.8
#### Pip
You can also use pip to update Spyder with the following command in a system terminal (`cmd.exe` on Windows, `xterm` on Linux or `Terminal.app` on macOS):
pip install -U spyder
*Note*: **Do not** use this command if you are using Anaconda because it will break your installation.
