<details><summary>Do I have to use Miniconda?</summary>

There are certain dependencies which are sourced exclusively from the `conda-forge` directory. Other virtual environment managers, such a `venv`, may not solve the environment properly, resulting in failed package installations or incorrect builds. We highly recommend using Miniconda as the Python virtual environment manager for installing the OpenBB SDK.
