Hi,

A new release of vpython-jupyer, version 2.0.7, was made over the weekend that fixes some installation issues:

  • Some Windows users intalling with 'pip install vpython' were getting messages that they needed to install a compiler. Binary versions of vpython for Mac and Windows on Python 2.7, 3.5 and 3.6, are now available if you install with pip.
  • Installation of vpython with conda (conda install -c vpython vpython) was not properly installing the VPython kernel for the notebook. In addition, packages were not available for Python 3.6. Both of those problems are now fixed.
The only bad news is that pre-built binaries for Python 3.4 will no longer be provided.

Thanks,
Matt Craig
