A couple of additional notes:

1. Conda packages will be available in a couple of hours directly from Continuum. 2. The Mac DMGs will be available in a couple of weeks (I'm traveling right now :-)


Cheers,

Hi all,

On the behalf of the Spyder Project Contributors (https://github.com/spyder-ide/spyder/graphs/contributors), I’m pleased to announce that Spyder 3.0 has been released and is available for Windows, GNU/Linux and MacOS X: https://github.com/spyder-ide/spyder/releases

This release represents more than two years of development since version 2.3.0 was released, and it introduces major enhancements and new features. The most important ones are:

  * Third-party plugins: External developers can now create plugins
    that extend Spyder in novel and interesting ways. For example, we
    already have plugins for the line-profiler and memory-profiler
    projects, and also a graphical frontend for the conda package
    manager. These plugins can be distributed as pip and/or conda
    packages for authors convenience.
  * Improved projects support: Projects have been revamped and
    improved significantly in Spyder 3.0. With our new projects
    support, people will have the possibility of easily working on
    different coding efforts at the same time. That’s because projects
    save the state of open files in the Editor and allow Python
    packages created as part of the project to be imported in our
    consoles.
  * Support for much more programming languages: Spyder relies now on
    the excellent Pygments library to provide syntax highlight and
    suggest code completions in the Editor, for all programming
    languages supported by it.
  * A new file switcher: Spyder 3.0 comes with a fancy file switcher,
    very similar in spirit to the one present in Sublime Text. This is
    a dialog to select among the open files in the Editor, by doing a
    fuzzy search through their names. It also lets users to view the
    list of classes, methods and functions defined in the current
    file, and select one of them. This dialog is activated with |Ctrl+P|.
  * A Numpy array graphical builder: Users who need to create NumPy
    arrays in Spyder for matrices and vectors can do it now in a
    graphical way by pressing |Ctrl+M| in the Editor or the Consoles.
    This will open an empty 2D table widget to be filled with the data
    required by the user.
  * A new icon theme based on FontAwesome.
  * A new set of default pane layouts for those coming from Rstudio or
    Matlab (under |View > Window layouts|).
  * A simpler and more intuitive way to introduce keyboard shortcuts.
  * Support for PyQt5, which fixes problems in MacOS X and in high
    definition screens.

For a complete list of changes, please see here:

Spyder 2.3 has been a huge success (being downloaded almost 550,000 times!) and we hope 3.0 will be as successful as it. For that we fixed 203 important bugs, merged 218 pull requests from about 40 authors and added almost 2850 commits between these two releases.

Don’t forget to follow Spyder updates/news on the project Github website: https://github.com/spyder-ide/spyder

Last, but not least, we welcome any contribution that helps making Spyder an efficient scientific development/computing environment. Join us to help creating your favorite environment!

Enjoy!
-Carlos
