Install using conda
It would be nice to be able to install de CS50 library on a conda environment. Students not always have access to sudo permission, so it makes it easier to install the library on environments where the student has only user permissions.
sudo access isn't needed to install the library. You should be able to specify the destination at which the library will be installed by setting DESTDIR. See https://github.com/cs50/libcs50#from-source-linux-and-mac!
But this way one would not be able to easily update the library. One would have to manually download and install from source every time that there is a new release. It would be interesting to at least consider a Conda version.
Great, I never did anything like that, but I can do a little research and get back with something in a couple of days/weeks.
I built the cs50 package for Windows and Linux using conda-build and it runs well on local in my cs50 venv. I do not plan to maintain it for inclusion in anaconda or conda-forge however. But, for anyone that feels they want to have cs50 in their Anaconda environment you can follow the instructions here: https://docs.conda.io/projects/conda-build/en/latest/user-guide/tutorials/build-pkgs.html
You need to use python 3.9 in your cs50 venv.
@kzidane I uploaded it to anaconda. It can be found/installed from here: conda install -c vmajor cs50
I hope I maintained the copyright information correctly and in compliance with the license. Let me know if there is a problem.

Wen for mac ? ;-)
Ha, from me possibly never. I do not have a Mac and I am really not volunteering to maintain this conda version. I made it just as convenience for others... and I guess to encourage others (you :) ) to build your own version.
