how to install?

[zelda0079]

I cannot install the matplotlib which's version is older than 3.5.0, how I install the proplot?.......

  Extracting /project/freetype/freetype2/2.6.1/freetype-2.6.1.tar.gz
  Building freetype in build\freetype-2.6.1
  msbuild build\freetype-2.6.1\builds\windows\vc2010\freetype.sln /t:Clean;Build /p:Configuration=Release;Platform=x64
  error: command 'msbuild' failed: None
  [end of output]

note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip.

Please see https://github.com/proplot-dev/proplot/pull/459! Until this gets merged in and released as an official version, you can install proplot via the following command to have compatibility with modern python versions and modern versions of matplotlib, cartopy, etc.

pip install git+https://github.com/proplot-dev/proplot.git@refs/pull/459/head
