I have installed Anaconda on my Windows 10 system. Now I want to use python in newly installed Atom IDE. Atom cannot find python directory as it's not added to the environment variable path.

I installed python 3.6 separately and added it to path variables to overcome this issue. However, I still run into issues like missing .dll files. I found that this will continue as long as there Anaconda is installed on the system.

Is there a way I can add Anaconda python path to Atom or should I just add Anaconda library to path variables (which is not recommended by Anaconda)?

If you want to run python scripts inside atom, install script package from atom packages. Then open anaconda prompt, cd into your preferred directory and run atom . Now when you run Ctrl+Shift+B to run your python scripts, this script package will run with anaconda python.
