# Other packaged distributions

There are other packaging systems than Anaconda; I only emphasized that
one because it's available on Mac OS X, Windows, and Linux. But if
you're already using a package system, ROOT may be a part of it.

For example, on Mac OS [Homebrew](https://brew.sh/) has both ROOT and
Jupyter:

    /bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"
    xcode-select --install
    brew install python root jupyterlab

In RHEL-derived Linux systems (e.g., [Fedora](https://getfedora.org/), [CentOS](https://www.centos.org/),
[Rocky Linux](https://rockylinux.org/), [AlmaLinux](https://almalinux.org/)), the [EPEL
repository](https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL) has also has both ROOT
and Jupyter. For example:

    sudo yum -y install epel-release
    sudo yum -y install root\* python3 python3-pip python3-root python3-devel python3-jupyroot
    pip install --user jupyter jupyterlab numpy scipy matplotlib rootpy rootkernel

Note that neither of the above examples is complete. You'll have some homework to do!
