## Getting Anaconda to work in the VS Code terminal
```{tab} Windows
On Windows, Anaconda usually does not work in the integrated VS Code terminal (Powershell). To check if it works for you, open a new terminal in VS Code by going clicking **View > Terminal** in the top menu bar. In the terminal window that appears, type `conda` and execute. If you get help page for `conda`, you're all set. If instead you get something like:

```{tab} MacOS
Usually, Anaconda works by default in the MacOS terminal. To check if it works for you, open a new terminal in VS Code by going clicking **View > Terminal** in the top menu bar. In the terminal window that appears, type `conda` and execute. If you get help page for `conda`, you're all set. If instead you get something like:
zsh: command not found: conda
then do the following:
1. Find out where Anaconda is installed on your system. If you left everything as default during the installation, Anaconda is installed in `/Users/<username>/anaconda3` if you used the install script, or in `/Users/<username>/opt` if you used the graphical interface to install Anaconda.
2. Execute the following line:
source <anaconda-installation-dir>/bin/activate
3. Then:
conda init zsh
4. Restart VS Code, then test by executing `conda` again. This time, it should give you the help page. You now have access to you Anaconda environments in the VS Code terminal.
