Conda is an open source, cross-platform, language-agnostic package manager and environment management system that installs, runs, and updates packages and their dependencies. Conda allows users to easily

  • install different versions of binary software packages and any required libraries appropriate for their computing platform
  • switch between package versions
  • download and install updates from a software repository.

    • Conda is written in the Python programming language, but can manage projects containing code written in other languages (e.g., R), including multi-language projects. Conda can install the Python programming language, while similar Python-based cross-platform package managers (such as wheel or pip) cannot.

    Continuum Analytics maintains Conda (among other open source tools), which it releases under the Berkeley Software Distribution License.
