Move from Anaconda? #215

There was some mention of this in the RSE/ITS slack a little while ago, but it looks like Anaconda are clamping down on what it sees as usage outside its ToS: Article

I've not heard anything about the University's position on this and I'm not sure if the PyCam code would violate those terms, but it may be worth thinking about a move from it regardless. Given we use pip for installing pretty much all the dependencies we should be okay on that front (we should be able to use venv or something similar). So, I think the only thing that may present an issue is getting the right version of Python.

Maybe pyenv-win would work?

Or mamba? Drop in replacement for conda.
