Python Fundamental — How to install the Python Package Installer (PIP) on Windows
Before you read this article, make sure that you check my previous article :
Unlike NodeJS, which is bundled with NPM (Node package manager) during the installation process, in this case PIP (Pypthon package installer) is a standalone extension that is not included in the python installer.
First thing to do is Download PIP (PIP Installs Package) on the official website
Then open the power shell or CMD and make sure the python path is installed on the local machine then write the command below
python get-pip.py
make sure:
- The power shell folder path is in the downloads folder because get-pip.py is in the downloads folder
cd C: \ Downloads
- python path is registered for environment variables.
On Powershell, wait until the pip installation process and the download process is complete, it will take time based on internet speed.
PIP also requires wheel registered for the environment variables. Add this path wheel to the windows environment variables.
