Python - Virtual Environment

Python allow you to create isolated spaces for different projects, each with their own dependencies.

Creating virtual environments

$ python -m venv /path/to/new/virtual/environment

Activating a virtual environment (Windows, Linux)

$ <venv>\Scripts\activate

$ source <venv>/bin/activate

Now you can install packages in isolated environments using pip. View installed packages with pip list or pip freeze.

Deactivating a virtual environment

$ deactivate

This command only works when inside an active virtual environment.
