Stable installation of Napari on a M1 Mac
In the past few days I have played around with Napariꜛ on my M1 Mac. For some reasons, I was not able to install it from pipꜛ,
python -m venv napari_venv
source napari_venv/bin/activate
which python
python -m pip install "napari[all]"
napari
neither via terminal nor via VS Code (I always received the error message error: metadata-generation-failed
). It only worked via PyCharm, and I was able to run Napari, though it was very unstable (it crashed a lot).
On the other hand, I had no problems installing it from condaꜛ via terminal,
conda create -n napari_conda -y python=3.9
conda activate napari_conda
which python
conda install -c conda-forge napari
napari
No crashes and the installation of plugins also worked fine.
