#### Dependencies
Two Python packages are installed alongside to generate the social preview
images, both of which are based on the [Cairo Graphics] library:
Two Python packages are installed alongside Material for MkDocs to generate the
social preview images, both of which are based on the [Cairo Graphics] library:
- [Pillow] – Python imaging library
- [CairoSVG] – Converter for `*.svg` files
In order for the [built-in social cards] plugin to work, follow the
[installation guide] for the [Cairo Graphics] library for your operating system,
and make sure that `zlib`, `libjpeg`, `libfreetype` and `libffi` are installed.
Otherwise you might see warnings such as:
The [Docker image] for Insiders comes with all dependencies pre-installed. If
you don't want to use Docker, see the following section which explains how to
install all dependencies on your system:
```
no library called "cairo" was found
no library called "libcairo-2" was found
cannot load library 'libcairo.so.2': error 0x7e
cannot load library 'libcairo.2.dylib': error 0x7e
cannot load library 'libcairo-2.dll': error 0x7e
```
=== ":material-apple: macOS"
_Don't want to bother? The [Docker image] for Insiders comes with all
dependencies pre-installed._
Make sure [Homebrew] is installed, which is a modern package manager for
macOS. Next, use the following command to install all necessary
dependencies:
```
brew install cairo freetype libffi libjpeg libpng zlib
```
=== ":fontawesome-brands-windows: Windows"
As stated in the [installation guide], the easiest way to get up and running
with the [Cairo Graphics] library on Windows is by installing [GTK+], since
it has Cairo as a dependency.
=== ":material-linux: Linux"
There are several package managers for Linux with varying availability per
distribution. The [installation guide] explains how to install the [Cairo
Graphics] library for your distribution:
=== ":material-ubuntu: Ubuntu"
```
apt-get install libcairo2-dev libfreetype6-dev libffi-dev libjpeg-dev libpng-dev libz-dev
```
=== ":material-fedora: Fedora"
```
yum install cairo-devel freetype-devel libffi-devel libjpeg-devel libpng-devel zlib-devel
```
=== ":fontawesome-brands-suse: openSUSE"
```
zypper install cairo-devel freetype-devel libffi-devel libjpeg-devel libpng-devel zlib-devel
