Installation

Install Ivy from the Python Package Index using pip: 

$ pip install ivy

Ivy requires Python 3.6 or later.

Buy it for life

Attention-seeking tools are an annoyance. I've built Ivy as a solid, simple tool that I can use without thinking about for the next twenty years.

Ivy is highly extensible so updates to its core will be few and far between. Maintaining backwards compatibility will always have a higher priority than adding new features.
