Streamlit_folium is breaking streamlit

I am trying to follow this tutorial:

The python code requires something called streamlit_folium. I used conda to create an environment for streamlit following these instructions:

After creating the environment (python 3.7.12) on my Windows machine and using pip to install streamlit, the “streamlit hello” test worked properly.

Then I used Anaconda to install the packages necessary for the tutorial: pandas, folium, geopandas, streamlit_folium.

After installing these packages to the environment, the “streamlit hello” test no longer works (see error message at end of this post). In fact no command beginning with “streamlit” works.

It seems like the problem is only with streamlit_folium because if I install the other packages but not streamlit _folium then streamlit will still work. But of course then I can’t import streamlit_folium and so my python code won’t run. Does anyone have any ideas how I might fix this?

Okay, I’m going to answer my own question.

Upon further experimentation, everything works fine if (instead of using conda) I install streamlit-folium with:

pip install streamlit-folium

Just don’t ask me why!
