# Installation
## Required dependencies
Required dependencies include:
- [Python](https://docs.python.org/3/) (3.11 or later)
- [packaging](https://packaging.pypa.io) (22.0 or later)
- [numpy](https://numpy.org) (1.26 or later)
- [numcodecs](https://numcodecs.readthedocs.io) (0.14 or later)
- [google-crc32c](https://github.com/googleapis/python-crc32c) (1.5 or later)
- [typing_extensions](https://typing-extensions.readthedocs.io) (4.9 or later)
- [donfig](https://donfig.readthedocs.io) (0.8 or later)
## pip
Zarr is available on [PyPI](https://pypi.org/project/zarr/). Install it using `pip`:
```console
pip install zarr
```
There are a number of optional dependency groups you can install for extra functionality.
These can be installed using `pip install "zarr[<extra>]"`, e.g. `pip install "zarr[gpu]"`
- `gpu`: support for GPUs
- `remote`: support for reading/writing to remote data stores
Additional optional dependencies include `rich`, `universal_pathlib`. These must be installed separately.
## conda
Zarr is also published to [conda-forge](https://conda-forge.org). Install it using `conda`:
```console
conda install -c conda-forge zarr
```
Conda does not support optional dependencies, so you will have to manually install any packages
needed to enable extra functionality.
# Nightly wheels
Development wheels are built nightly and published to the [scientific-python-nightly-wheels](https://anaconda.org/scientific-python-nightly-wheels) index. To install the latest nightly build:
```console
pip install --pre --extra-index-url https://pypi.anaconda.org/scientific-python-nightly-wheels/simple zarr
```
Note that nightly wheels may be unstable and are intended for testing purposes.
## Dependency support
Zarr has endorsed [Scientific-Python SPEC 0](https://scientific-python.org/specs/spec-0000/) and now follows the version support window as outlined below:
- Python: 36 months after initial release
- Core package dependencies (e.g. NumPy): 24 months after initial release
## Development
To install the latest development version of Zarr, see the contributing guide.
