Installation
From PyPI (recommended)
Install the latest weekly build directly from PyPI:
pip install altair==5.6.0.dev20251110
# or
uv pip install altair==5.6.0.dev20251110Note: Weekly builds use timestamped development versions (for example 5.6.0.dev20251110) for the PyPI artifacts. Installing from PyPI with an exact version pin picks up the full dev version automatically, i.e. no --pre flag required.
From GitHub Repository (direct install)
Install directly from the tagged commit without downloading the wheel:
Command line (pip or uv):
pip install git+https://github.com/vega/altair.git@weekly-20251110-65c2c7f4
# or
uv pip install git+https://github.com/vega/altair.git@weekly-20251110-65c2c7f4Note: Installing directly from the weekly-... tag will surface the base development version (without the timestamp suffix) because the version file edits are not committed.

[project]
dependencies = [
"altair @ git+https://github.com/vega/altair.git@weekly-20251110-65c2c7f4",
