# Getting Started
To get started with using pip, you should [install Python] on your system.
[install Python]: https://realpython.com/installing-python/
## Ensure you have a working pip
As a first step, you should check that you have a working Python with pip
installed. This can be done by running the following commands and making
sure that the output looks similar.
```{pip-cli}
$ python --version
Python 3.N.N
$ pip --version
pip X.Y.Z from ... (python 3.N.N)
```
If that worked, congratulations! You have a working pip in your environment.
If you got output that does not look like the sample above, please read
the {doc}`installation` page. It provides guidance on how to install pip
within a Python environment that doesn't have it.
## Common tasks
### Install a package
```{pip-cli}
$ pip install sampleproject
[...]
Successfully installed sampleproject
```
By default, pip will fetch packages from [Python Package Index][PyPI], a
repository of software for the Python programming language where anyone can
upload packages.
[PyPI]: https://pypi.org/
### Install a package from GitHub
```{pip-cli}
$ pip install git+https://github.com/pypa/sampleproject.git@main
[...]
Successfully installed sampleproject
```
See {doc}`topics/vcs-support` for more information about this syntax.
### Install a package from a distribution file
pip can install directly from distribution files as well. They come in 2 forms:
- {term}`source distribution <Source Distribution (or "sdist")>` (usually shortened to "sdist")
- {term}`wheel distribution <Wheel>` (usually shortened to "wheel")
```{pip-cli}
$ pip install sampleproject-1.0.tar.gz
[...]
Successfully installed sampleproject
$ pip install sampleproject-1.0-py3-none-any.whl
[...]
Successfully installed sampleproject
```
### Install multiple packages using a requirements file
Many Python projects use {file}`requirements.txt` files, to specify the
list of packages that need to be installed for the project to run. To install
the packages listed in that file, you can run:
```{pip-cli}
$ pip install -r requirements.txt
[...]
Successfully installed sampleproject
```
### Upgrade a package
```{pip-cli}
$ pip install --upgrade sampleproject
[...]
Successfully installed sampleproject
```
### Uninstall a package
```{pip-cli}
$ pip uninstall sampleproject
Uninstalling sampleproject:
[...]
Proceed (Y/n)? y
Successfully uninstalled sampleproject
```
## Next Steps
It is recommended to learn about what virtual environments are and how to use
them. This is covered in the {doc}`Installing Packages <pypug:tutorials/installing-packages>`
tutorial on packaging.python.org.
