Installation and usage

The theme is available on PyPI and conda-forge. You can install and use as follows:

  • Install the pydata-sphinx-theme in your doc build environment:

    pip install pydata-sphinx-theme
    # or
    conda install pydata-sphinx-theme --channel conda-forge
    
  • Then, in the conf.py of your sphinx docs, you update the html_theme configuration option:

    html_theme = "pydata_sphinx_theme"
    

And that's it!

[!NOTE] This theme may not work with the latest major versions of Sphinx, especially if they have only recently been released. Please give us a few months of time to work out any bugs and changes when new releases are made. See our contributing documentation for more information.
