Installing Python with multiple environments


Step 1:


Step 2:

setup a directory to install Python via the command line
"mkdir python3ver" for the python binaries
and "mkdir pythonProjects" for the python projects

Step 3:

during the installation 
setup the install folder to python3ver\py3111\
then press 'install'

step 4:


via the command line go to pythonProjects
then type
python -m venv my_new_env

once it is done
tree my_new_env
to see the result

Step 5:

To activate the environment
Inside the PythonProjects folder
type
My_new_env\Scripts\activate

the prompt then will change showing (My_new_env)
from there Python can be launched.



To deactivate the environment
just type 'deactivate'

that's the end of the video

on linux the way to activate the environment is by using 'source'

source /path/to/venv/bin/activate
