 ## Installation with pip
@@ -29,7 +28,21 @@ Fluidfft can be installed without compilation with `pip`:
 
 ```sh
 pip install pip -U
-pip install fluidsim
+pip install fluidfft
+```
+
+However, fluidfft [works with plugins](./plugins.md), which have to be installed
+additionally, for example using fluidfft optional dependencies. Installing [pyfftw] does
+not require compilation:
+
+```sh
+pip install "fluidfft[pyfftw]"
+```
+
+whereas installing other plugins will trigger local compilation.

 ### Remark on Numpy installed with conda
 
-In anaconda (or miniconda), Numpy installed with `conda install numpy` can be
-built and linked with MKL (an Intel library). This can be a real plus for
-performance since MKL replaces fftw functions by (usually) faster ones but it
-has a drawback for fft using the library fftw3_mpi (an implementation of
-parallel fft using 1D decomposition by fftw). MKL implements some fftw
-functions but not all the functions defined in fftw3_mpi. Since the libraries
-are loaded dynamically, if numpy is imported before the fftw_mpi libraries,
-this can lead to very bad issues (segmentation fault, only if numpy is imported
-before the class!). For security, we prefer to automatically disable the
-building of the fft classes using fftw3_mpi when it is detected that numpy uses
-the MKL library where some fftw symbols are defined.
