  2. After installation, launch the Anaconda Prompt.
  3. Create a new conda environment using:
    conda create --name KerasExample
    If you already have a conda environment set up, you can skip this step.
  4. Activate the conda environment using:
    activate KerasExample
  5. If you have an NVIDIA graphics card, you can install the GPU version:
    conda install -c anaconda keras-gpu
    Otherwise, you can install the CPU version:
    conda install -c anaconda keras
  6. Wait for the installation to complete.

That’s it. You have installed Keras in your conda environment!
