History¶
PySprings was founded in 2013. We previously offered a Python For Absolute Beginners class with the Pikes Peak Library District (pre-pandemic). There's no current plan for bringing this back, but our Skill Paths cover similar ground for self-study.
Python Installation¶
- Windows: Windows Python Setup — our presentation on installing Python with Conda
- Linux/Mac: Python is usually pre-installed. If not, use your system package manager or python.org.
