implementation, along with tools for interoperability with pandas, NumPy, and
other traditional Python scientific computing packages.
-#### Development details
+### Development details
This project is layered in two pieces:
* pyarrow, a C++ library for easier interoperability between Arrow C++, NumPy,
and pandas
* Cython extensions and pure Python code under arrow/ which expose Arrow C++
- and pyarrow to pure Python users

+ and pyarrow to pure Python users
+
+#### PyArrow Dependencies:
+These are the various projects that PyArrow depends on.
+
+1. **g++ and gcc Version >= 4.8**
+2. **cmake > 2.8.6**
+3. **boost**
+4. **Parquet-cpp**
+
+ The preferred way to install parquet-cpp is to use conda.
+ You need to set the ``PARQUET_HOME`` environment variable to where parquet-cpp is installed.
+ ```bash
+ conda install -y --channel apache/channel/dev parquet-cpp
+ ```
+5. **Arrow-cpp and its dependencies***
+
+ The Arrow C++ library must be built with all options enabled and installed with ``ARROW_HOME`` environment variable set to
+ the installation location. Look at (https://github.com/apache/arrow/blob/master/cpp/README.md) for
+ instructions. Alternatively you could just install arrow-cpp
+ from conda.
+ ```bash
+ conda install arrow-cpp -c apache/channel/dev
+ ```
+6. **Python dependencies: numpy, pandas, cython, pytest**
+
+#### Install pyarrow
+ ```bash
+ python setup.py build_ext --inplace
+ ```
