Solve a Python problem using Anaconda
This guide will help you if, for example, you want to deploy a package like pymysql and it requires a Python version higher than the one offered on your hosting.
Preamble
- Anaconda is a free and open-source distribution of the Python programming language. This distribution aims to simplify package management and deployment.
- It is recommended to use conda which comes with a recent version of python and installs in the user space, so there is no conflict with the system python (like in a virtual environment, which always requires a system installation of the desired version).
- Refer to the official documentation.
⚠️ For additional help contact a partner or launch a free tender — also discover the role of the host.
