 To give the VisualDL a quick test, please use the following commands.
 
 ```
-# Install the VisualDL. Preferably under a virtual environment.
+# Install the VisualDL. Preferably under a virtual environment or anaconda.
 pip install --upgrade visualdl
 
 # run a demo, vdl_create_scratch_log will create logs for testing.

 # visit http://127.0.0.1:8080
 ```
 
+If you run into issues in above steps, it could be error caused by environmental issues by different python or pip versions.
+Following installation methods might fix the issues.
+
+## Install with Virtualenv
+
+[Virtualenv](https://virtualenv.pypa.io/en/stable/) creates isolated Python environment that prevents interfering
+by other Python programs on the same machine and make sure Python and pip are located properly.
+
+On macOS, install pip and virtualenv by:
+```
+sudo easy_install pip
+pip install --upgrade virtualenv
+```
+
+On Linux, install virtualenv by:
+```
+sudo apt-get install python3-pip python3-dev python-virtualenv
+```
+
+Then create a Virtualenv environment by one of following command:
+```
+virtualenv ~/vdl  # for Python2.7
+virtualenv -p python3 ~/vdl for Python 3.x
+```
+
+```~/vdl``` will be your Virtualenv directory, you may choose to install anywhere.
+
+Activate your Virtualenv environment by:
+```
+source ~/vdl/bin/activate
+```
+
+Now you should be able to install VisualDL and run our demo:
+
+```
+pip install --upgrade visualdl
+
+# run a demo, vdl_create_scratch_log will create logs for testing.
+vdl_create_scratch_log
+visualdl --logdir=scratch_log --port=8080
+
+# visit http://127.0.0.1:8080
+```
+
+If you still have issues installing VisualDL from Virtualenv, try following installation method.
+
+
+## Install with Anaconda
+
+Anaconda is a python distribution, with installation and package management tools. Also it is an environment manager,
+which provides the facility to create different python environments, each with their own settings.
+
+Follow the instructions on the [Anaconda download site](https://www.anaconda.com/download) to download and install Anaconda.
+Download Python 3.6 version command-Line installer.
+
+Create a conda environment named ```vdl``` or anything you want by:
+```
+conda create -n vdl pip python=2.7 # or python=3.3, etc.
+```
+
+Activate the conda environment by:
+```
+source activate vdl
+```
+
+Now you should be able to install VisualDL and run our demo:
+
+```
+pip install --upgrade visualdl
+
+# run a demo, vdl_create_scratch_log will create logs for testing.
+vdl_create_scratch_log
+visualdl --logdir=scratch_log --port=8080
+
+# visit http://127.0.0.1:8080
+```
