Mamba#

Mamba is a package manager which is useful for those looking for an alternative to Conda / Anaconda for their Python environment manager needs. Anaconda is a set of packages designed to be stable for data scientists, engineers, etc, with the package manager Conda and GUI Anaconda Navigator, however I have found that this stability comes at the expense of frequent updates. This has caused me a whole host of problems, so I moved to Mamba and recommend you do too!

Installation#
