How to install CARTOframes


The CARTOframes library can be best installed by starting Anaconda Navigator and creating a new environment. From there, you can open a terminal and use pip install, which will install the library for you. This is currently the only way to install it (there's no conda support yet).

>>pip install cartoframes

Additional resources

CARTOframes documentation can be found, at: http://CARTOframes.readthedocs.io/en/latest/.

The current version of CARTOframes is 0.5.5. The PyPi repository for CARTOframes can be accessed here: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/CARTOframes.

There's also a GitHub repository with additional information, as one of the many CARTO GitHub repositories: https://github.com/CARTODB/CARTOframes.
