## Installation Guide for Priism in Anaconda
## Installation Guide for Priism in Conda Environments

### Notes

- This installation process has been tested on Linux (Archlinux and OpenSUSE), and it should also work for other Linux distributions. However, it has **not** been tested on macOS.
- We recommend using **Miniforge** or **Miniconda** for this installation, as they are free and open-source. However, please note that access to **Anaconda’s public repository** of packages is only free for individuals and small organizations (fewer than 200 employees). A paid license is required for larger organizations or those embedding/mirroring Anaconda’s repository. For more details, refer to [Anaconda's terms of service](https://www.anaconda.com/terms-of-service).
- Using **Miniforge**, which is configured to use the **conda-forge** channel by default, is a good alternative if you want to avoid licensing concerns related to Anaconda’s repository.
- Ensure you have the appropriate permissions for copying files and modifying your environment.
