Where is pip package manager ?

[uglybug]

how do you install the PIP manager ?
i am not familiar with Pythonista just yet.

First, understand that the Pythonista environment is a somewhat limited version of python. You get a full python interpreter, however any modules which are not written in pure python cannot be installed. Pythonista comes with numpy, matplotlib, and a few others, but if you are looking for scipy, pandas or the like, don't even try, it won't work.

You should install stash

That is like bash, and includes a version of pip. Again, don't try to install non pure py modules.

@JonB
thank you for your help.
could you tell me how to know if a package meets the ‘pure python’ criteria, other than trial & error ?

For a GitHub repo, look for Languages at the bottom of the right column. If that list only includes Python then that is a good sign.
