Installing imageio

Imageio is written in pure Python, so installation is easy. Imageio works on Python 3.11 through 3.14. It also works on Pypy. Imageio depends on Numpy and Pillow. For some formats, imageio needs additional libraries/executables (e.g. ffmpeg), which imageio helps you to download/install.

To install imageio, use one of the following methods:

• If you are in a conda env: conda install -c conda-forge imageio

• If you have pip: pip install imageio

• Good old python setup.py install

After installation, checkout the examples and user api.
