# Use Python venv
|

|
|
|

|
|
Python venv is Python Virtual Environment. Why do we need to use Python venv ? Because we don't want to mess up with Python packages which are stored in different location: system directories, user directories, ...
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Assume you use Python 3 and Linux.
|
||
|
|
|

|
Python venv stores everything in a local directory.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Inside a directory, run:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```sh
|
||
|
|
python -m venv venv
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Now you can use venv with:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```sh
|
||
|
|
source ./venv/bin/activate
|
||
|
|
```
