+By adding the channel you can install python packages from there.
-Depending on your computer and internet connection, it can take a while for this to complete.
-You will need to confirm that you really want to install the environment.
+The line above means:
+- `conda`: a command for conda
+- `config`: change something in the configuration (settings) of `conda`
+- `--prepend channels`: in the channels from which conda can install things, add to the top (prepend)
+- `conda-forge`: the channel name

+
+## Creating an environment and Installing Activity Browser
+Next, we create a python environment, in which we install Activity Browser
```bash
conda create -n ab -c conda-forge activity-browser
```
+> [!NOTE]
+> Installing Activity Browser can take some time, this depends on the speed of your internet connection and computer.
+
+More information about this step
+
+We create a separate environment, this allows Activity Browser to work with the specific versions of other libraries
+it needs without interfering with other python packages.
+
+The line above means:
+- `conda`: a command for conda
+- `create -n ab`: create a new e**n**vironment (`-n`) with the name `ab`
+- `-c conda-forge`: from the **c**hannel (`-c`) `conda-forge`
+- `activity-browser`: install the package `activity-browser`
+

+> All environments will have access to the same projects and databases in Activity Browser.
