What is the best way to Install Conda on MacOS (Apple/Mac)?

What is the recommended approach for installing Anaconda on Mac?

I tried with brew cask install anaconda
which after a while returns anaconda was successfully installed!.

After that - trying conda command returns command not found: conda.

Is there any post step installation that needs to be done?
And what is recommended way to install Conda on MacOS?

Solution

  • First run brew install anaconda

    Then run which anaconda to find the path to export.

    • export PATH="/usr/local/anaconda3/bin:$PATH"

    For Apple Silicon (M1 and above):

    • export PATH="/opt/homebrew/anaconda3/bin:$PATH"
