I am a novice in both Python and QGIS. I have reached a point where I want to use the Anaconda Sypder environment with QGIS. In essence, I want to know how to setup Spyder such that when it starts it finds all the QGIS components. I do not know enough about the OS (Windows 11) to setup my own batch file which would be one solution.

I would, instead, very much like to add the environment of QGIS to be inherited by Spyder. But am willing to try any recommendations.
