• Python (>= 3.6)
• FreeType (>= 2.3)
• libpng (>= 1.2)
• NumPy (>= 1.11)
• setuptools
• cycler (>= 0.10.0)
• dateutil (>= 2.1)
• kiwisolver (>= 1.0.0)
• pyparsing

We're ready to get the Matplotlib on our system!

• Install libpng and Freetype using brew:

  brew install libpng freetype pkg-config

• In case you're working on MacPorts, execute the following instead:

  port install libpng freetype pkgconfig

• Now install matplotlib from the source using:

  python -mpip install 

It's the easiest to get it on Ubuntu since you can get all the dependencies by simply using the following command:

sudo apt-get build-dep python-matplotlib
