18 18 Overview
19 19 ========
20 20
21 21 Welcome to IPython. Our full documentation is available on `ipython.readthedocs.io
22 22 <https://ipython.readthedocs.io/en/stable/>`_ and contains information on how to install, use and
23 23 contribute to the project.
24 24
25 25 Officially, IPython requires Python version 3.3 and above.
26 26 IPython 5.x is the last IPython version to support Python 2.7.
27 27
28 28 The Notebook, Qt console and a number of other pieces are now parts of *Jupyter*.
29 29 See the `Jupyter installation docs <http://jupyter.readthedocs.io/en/latest/install.html>`__
30 30 if you want to use these.

37 37
38 38 You can find the latest version of the development documentation on `readthedocs
39 39 <http://ipython.readthedocs.io/en/latest/>`_.
40 40
41 41 You can run IPython from this directory without even installing it system-wide
42 42 by typing at the terminal::
43 43
44 44 $ python -m IPython
45 45
46 46 Or see the `development installation docs
47 47 <http://ipython.readthedocs.io/en/latest/install/install.html#installing-the-development-version>`_
48 48 for the latest revision on read the docs.
49 49
50 50 Documentation and installation instructions for older version of IPython can be
51 51 found on the `IPython website <http://ipython.org/documentation.html>`_

55 55 IPython requires Python version 3 or above
56 56 ==========================================
57 57
58 58 Starting with version 6.0, IPython does not support Python 2.7, 3.0, 3.1, or
59 59 3.2.
60 60
61 61 For a version compatible with Python 2.7, please install the 5.x LTS Long Term
62 62 Support version.
63 63
64 64 If you are encountering this error message you are likely trying to install or
65 65 use IPython from source. You need to checkout the remote 5.x branch. If you are
66 66 using git the following should work:
67 67
68 68 $ git fetch origin
69 69 $ git checkout -b origin/5.x
70 70
71 71 If you encounter this error message with a regular install of IPython, then you
72 72 likely need to update your package manager, for example if you are using `pip`
73 73 check the version of pip with
74 74
75 75 $ pip --version
76 76
77 77 You will need to update pip to the version 8.2 or greater. If you are not using
78 78 pip, please inquiry with the maintainers of the package for your package
79 79 manager.
