Python versions#

The PyAnsys ecosystem follows SPEC-0 for Python version support, which is also similar to NEP 29. This means:

  • PyAnsys packages are expected to drop support for Python versions 3 years after their initial release.

You can find below the timeline for the end of support for each Python version according to the SPEC-0 policy as well as a table showing the Python versions supported by each PyAnsys metapackage, which might slightly differ from the SPEC-0 policy but is always aligned with it.

  • Grayed out Python versions are no longer supported by the current version of the PyAnsys metapackage.

  • Light blue Python versions are currently supported.

  • Dark blue Python versions are upcoming Python releases for which support is expected in the future.

Some extra remarks:

  • The length of the Python version boxes is indicative of the support duration according to the SPEC-0 policy.

  • The color of the Python version boxes is indicative of the PyAnsys metapackage current support.
