<h2>What is Astropy?</h2>
<p>The Astropy Project is a community effort to develop a core package for astronomy using the Python programming language and improve usability, interoperability, and collaboration between astronomy Python packages. The core astropy package contains functionality aimed at professional astronomers and astrophysicists, but may be useful to anyone developing astronomy software. The Astropy Project also includes <a href="http://www.astropy.org/affiliated/">Affiliated packages,</a> Python packages that are not necessarily developed by the core development team, but share the goals of Astropy, and often build from the core package's code and infrastructure.

<p>There are a number of options for installing the astropy package on MacOS X.</p>
<p>
The <a href="https://store.continuum.io/cshop/anaconda/">Anaconda Python Distribution</a> is one of the most common ways to install both Python and astropy. Once you have Anaconda installed, <a href="http://astropy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/install.html#anaconda-python-distribution">update to the latest version of astropy</a>:
<pre>conda update astropy</pre></p>
<p>Astropy can also be installed using the <a href="http://www.macports.org/">MacPorts</a> or <a href="http://www.finkproject.org/">Fink</a> package managers. It is also included with
<a href="https://www.enthought.com/products/canopy/">Enthought Canopy</a> and
<a href="http://astroconda.readthedocs.io/en/latest/index.html#">AstroConda</a>. You can also install the latest version of Astropy using <a href="http://www.pip-installer.org/">pip</a>.</p>
</div>
<div id="linux">
<p>There are a number of options for installing the astropy package on Linux. Astropy can be installed on some Linux distributions using the built-in package manager (apt-get, yum, etc.),
and is also included by default in the
<a href="https://store.continuum.io/cshop/anaconda/">Anaconda Python Distribution</a> (see <a href="http://astropy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/install.html#anaconda-python-distribution">here</a> for instructions on updating to the latest Astropy version),
<a href="https://www.enthought.com/products/canopy/">Enthought Canopy</a>, and
<a href="http://astroconda.readthedocs.io/en/latest/index.html#">AstroConda</a>, which
provide an easy way to get set up with a scientific
Python distribution.</p>
<p>The package managers, Anaconda, and Canopy may
not always include the latest version - in that case you can always
install the latest version of Astropy using <a href="http://www.pip-installer.org/">pip</a> or by downloading the
source code and installing it manually - see the <a href="#source">Source</a> tab above for
more details.
</p>
</div>
<div id="windows">
<p>There are a number of options for installing the astropy package on Windows.
Astropy is included by default in the <a
href="https://store.continuum.io/cshop/anaconda/">Anaconda Python
Distribution</a> and <a
href="https://www.enthought.com/products/canopy/">Enthought Canopy</a>,
both of which provide an easy way to get set up with a scientific Python
distribution.</p>
<p>However, Anaconda and Canopy may not always include the
latest version of Astropy, so if you need to install the latest
version, you can either use the binary installers available on
<a href="https://pypi.python.org/pypi/astropy/">PyPI</a> (usually made
available a few days after each release) or you can install Astropy from
source - see the <a href="#source">Source</a> tab above for more details.
</div>
<div id="source">
<p>To install Astropy from source, you can either use</p>
<pre>pip install astropy</pre>
<p>Alternatively, you can download a tarball for the latest release of astropy from <a href="https://pypi.python.org/pypi/astropy">PyPI</a>, then expand the tarfile and run:</p>
<pre>python setup.py install</pre>
<p>to build and install the package. For more on installing from source code, see the <a href="http://astropy.readthedocs.io/en/stable/install.html#building-from-source"> relevant part of the documentation</a>.</p>
</div>
<div id="dev">
<p>The latest developer code is available on <a href="https://github.com/astropy/astropy">GitHub</a>. If you have <a href="http://git-scm.com/">git</a> installed you can get the latest version with:</p>
<pre>git clone https://github.com/astropy/astropy.git</pre>
<p>If you don't have git installed, you can instead download a zip file of the <a href="https://github.com/astropy/astropy/archive/master.zip">latest development version</a>.</p>
<p>Once you have the latest source code, you can build and install it with:</p>
<pre>python setup.py install</pre>
<p>For more on installing from source code, see the <a href="http://astropy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/install.html#building-from-source"> relevant part of the documentation</a>.</p>
