Use Conda to install a package

I wrote a program that requires a package that is online available using conda install rather than pip install. I've been searching online and on these forums but I can't find any solution.

I imagined it would be possible by default considering Anaconda bought PythonAnywhere, so it got me a bit confused. Maybe I'm doing something wrong?

conda will be supported on the next system image that we're working on now.

Any idea when that will be released? I have a project that I want to host here.

Anyways thank you for the feedback, that's very good to hear.

No ETA, but we hope it will be sooner than later! :)

Has the next system image with conda support been released?

Yes, take a look at https://help.pythonanywhere.com/pages/conda/
