hvPlot supports Python 3.8 and above on Linux, Windows, or Mac. hvPlot can be installed with [conda](https://conda.io/en/latest/):

    conda install hvplot

or with `pip`:

    pip install hvplot

For versions of `jupyterlab>=3.0` the necessary extension is automatically bundled in the `pyviz_comms` package, which must be >=2.0. However note that for version of `jupyterlab<3.0` you must also manually install the JupyterLab extension with:

    conda install jupyterlab
    jupyter labextension install @pyviz/jupyterlab_pyviz
