## Installation from `pip`

If you are familiar with Python, we recommend installing Open Interpreter via `pip`

```bash theme={null}
pip install open-interpreter
```

<Info>
  You'll need Python
  [3.10](https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-3100/) or
  [3.11](https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-3110/). Run `python   --version` to check yours.

  It is recommended to install Open Interpreter in a [virtual
  environment](https://docs.python.org/3/library/venv.html).

## Experimental one-line installers

To try our experimental installers, open your Terminal with admin privileges [(click here to learn how)](https://chat.openai.com/share/66672c0f-0935-4c16-ac96-75c1afe14fe3), then paste the following commands:

<CodeGroup>
  ```bash Mac theme={null}
  curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openinterpreter/open-interpreter/main/installers/oi-mac-installer.sh | bash
  ```

  ```powershell Windows theme={null}
  iex "& {$(irm https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openinterpreter/open-interpreter/main/installers/oi-windows-installer-conda.ps1)}"
  ```

  ```bash Linux theme={null}
  curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openinterpreter/open-interpreter/main/installers/oi-linux-installer.sh | bash
  ```
</CodeGroup>

These installers will attempt to download Python, set up an environment, and install Open Interpreter for you.

## No Installation

If configuring your computer environment is challenging, you can press the `,` key on the [GitHub page](https://github.com/OpenInterpreter/open-interpreter) to create a codespace. After a moment, you'll receive a cloud virtual machine environment pre-installed with open-interpreter. You can then start interacting with it directly and freely confirm its execution of system commands without worrying about damaging the system.
