Anaconda offers the easiest developer friendly way to setup any system for data engineering. Anaconda is a package manager, an environment manager, and Python distribution that contains a collection of many open source packages. Anaconda Individual Edition contains conda and Anaconda Navigator, as well as Python and hundreds of scientific packages. When you installed Anaconda, you installed all these too.
