Unable to install using conda

Hello, I'm trying to install meshplot using conda and it fails as below. However, it did work on my other machine a few weeks ago.

$ conda install meshplot
Collecting package metadata (current_repodata.json): done
Solving environment: failed with initial frozen solve. Retrying with flexible solve.

Hi, meshplot is only available from the conda-forge channel, so you need to install it with
conda install -c conda-forge meshplot

Hi,

Thanks. I think it'd be a lot helpful if you can update it on the docs as well. I can confirm this works, so closing this issue.
