Installation for Obsolete Python Versions
Arcade aims to support the same Python versions currently supported by the PSF. You are strongly encouraged to upgrade to one of these if at all possible.
If you absolutely cannot upgrade to Python 3.7 or later, you can try using an older and unsupported version of Arcade.
Please remember the following:
Bugs will not be fixed, unless they are also present in current versions
The features and API may be very different from current versions
You will need use documentation for the version of Arcade you run
The pairings suggested below might not work. They are based on briefly skimming git history. You may have to use trial and error to look for a version that works, and it’s possible that you won’t find one! Here be dragons!
