====== Miniconda =======
<note warning> This page is under construction.
</note>

[[https://www.anaconda.com/docs/getting-started/miniconda/main|Miniconda]] is a free, miniature installation of Anaconda Distribution that includes only conda, Python, the packages they both depend on, and a small number of other useful packages. It is now the recommended replacement for Anaconda on UD’s HPC clusters (Caviness and DARWIN), as Anaconda changes its policy for academic use. 
To determine the available versions of Anaconda installed, use

<code>
$ vpkg_versions miniconda
</code>

<note warning> Warning: The company that develops Anaconda has recently begun charging for use of the ''defaults'' channel. Terms and conditions that might provide an exception for use at a university are not yet clear. The ''conda-forge'' channel is still available for free, regardless. DO NOT use Anaconda channels!

===== VALET Package Definitions =====

<note important>Keep in mind the recipes provided for each cluster may include instructions on how to create a VALET package for the virtual Python environment using a script to activate the environment, called ''miniconda-activate.sh''. </note>
