Is 'conda' env needed when installing this extension? about debugger HOT 5 CLOSED

Hello! Thanks for the interest!

This extension is in active development.

• The first Python kernel that will support debugging is the xeus-python kernel. It is not currently able to be installed with pip (although you could file an issue in the kernel's repository requesting that as a feature. It can be installed from source if conda is an issue.
• Other kernels will likely support the debugging protocol (basically the Visual Studio Debug Adapter Protocol on the control channel) in the future. But for now, the initial implementation and proof-of-concept for this functionality is xeus-python.
• We are targeting a release before the end of this year!

@AeneasZhu xeus-python can now be installed with pip (but not on windows atm):

pip install xeus-python

Could that work for your setup?

@jtpio Nope, it doesn't work. Acutually, xeus-python cannot install from pip on my computer.

OS: Win10 2004
Python version: 3.8.3 amd-64

Indeed, we haven't published a windows wheel yet. Please use the conda package on windows.

Closing, as support for the windows wheel is being discussed on the xeus-python and xeus-python-wheel repos.

See jupyter-xeus/xeus-python#181 for more information.
