Release Date: Oct. 13, 2014
Python 3.4 has reached end-of-life. Python 3.4.10, the final release of the 3.4 series, is availablehere.
The easy way to get up and running with Spyder on any of our supported platforms is to download it as part of the Anaconda distribution, and use the conda package and environment manager to keep it and your other packages installed and up to date. We recommend the latest 64-bit Python 3 version, unless you have specific requirements that dictate otherwise.
Python 3.4.2 was released on October 8th, 2014.
