Hello @akshat and Welcome to the Toradex Community!

Could you provide the version of the Hardware and Software of your module?

Best regards,
Jaski

hardware version is Apalis iMX6q V1.1C
and software version is kernel version : 4.9.166 -2.8.6

Hi @akshat

You need to build a custom image and add python3-pip to this custom image.

Alternatively you can install our new Software Platform named Torizon which features running a debian container where you can install the packages out of box.

i also want to know one more thing…for app development using QT in toradex which will be better…python or c++?
does python really have a speed issue?
please help me in this point…i am confused with it…shall we go for python?or c++ will be good for it?
