Trouble creating a new project

Troubleshooting and Support
1

Hi,
I am trying to create a new project using the instructions detailed on the wiki page but am not having success. When I run ./helper.py create MyProjects/TestSeedProject --board seed my terminal returns Traceback (most recent call last): File "./helper.py", line 7, in <module> import pathlib ImportError: No module named pathlib

In case it matters, I am on an M1 mac using the zsh shell instead of the bash

I suspect you’re on an old python version. Just to confirm, what output do you get when you run python --version ?

You can also try explicitly calling python3 with
python3 helper.py create MyProjects/TestSeedProject --board seed

If that fails, you probably don’t have python3 installed yet. If that’s the case you can install it from python.org.

Thank you!. I was on python 2.7.
Explicitly calling python3 as you suggested worked
