Create virtual environment → pip install rich → verify with python -m rich. Use rich[jupyter] for notebook support. Upgrade with pip install -U rich. Works on Windows/Linux/Mac, no system Python pollution.

‍Step 1:- Create & activate virtual environment

Code

python -m venv rich_env
# Windows: rich_env\Scripts\activate
source rich_env/bin/activate  # Linux/Mac

Step 2:-Install Rich

Code

pip install rich  # Basic
# pip install "rich[jupyter]"  # With Jupyter support

Step 3:-Verify installation

Code

python -m rich  # Shows Rich demo (success!)

Step 4:-Upgrade (if needed)

Code

pip install -U rich

Step 5:-Test in Python

Code

python -c "from rich import print; print('[bold red]Rich works![/bold red]')"

Production CLI Project:

Code

# requirements.txt
echo "rich>=13.0.0" >> requirements.txt
pip install -r requirements.txt
