The Complete Guide to Python Virtual Environments!

[@matthewsales8983]

This turned my learning on virtual environments from “copying” to “understanding.” It’s such a gratifying feeling. Thank you. I lost sight of what I was doing in creating virtual environments and felt lost for a few days. This was so concise and clear. Again, thank you. Subbed.

[@chasebledsoe7449]

Best coding tutorial video I have ever watched. Super high quality, incredibly clear

[@AliEgemenB]

As a second year CS student this was great. Everything made sense. After watching this I tried conda, hated it, switched to venv. Now I'm a happy Data Science learner thanks to you.

[@tecladocode]

Glad it helped! Thanks for the comment!

[@tamalchakraborty5346]

Conda can be helpful as well if you use it correctly. Create seperate venvs from conda, and use it for multiple projects.

[@sumanthchippagiri1687]

This 15 minutes are extremely useful for absolute beginners to virtual environments. You can go ahead and watch it carefully. I thank you sir,Jose for speaking clearly each step you do .

[@neila880]

Excellect video that helped a lot. I'd just like to add; to create a requirements.txt file easily, run: pip3 freeze > requirements.txt. That will put all of the modules and versions in a file for you to edit or use to import into another virtual environment.

[@2002budokan]

Yesss! We need this kind of information. There are thousands of guys who talk about a programming language, but very few who talk about the information that enables a project to move forward, to deliver. Thanks Jose. How about a video about conda and another one to compare both?

[@shreyanshtripathi4440]

I couldn't have found a better tutorial to get started, its really worth watching!

[@lennartjongen6262]

I used CTRL+SHIFT+C (when I opened my py script in VScode) to skip the first 3 steps. This video is amazing. Thank you so much!

[@eleet321]

This was the best crash course on virtual environments I've seen. The diagrams are crystal clear and your pace is amazing. Thank you!

[@tecladocode]

Thank you very much! Glad you liked it 🚀

[@hunterdean1562]

smashin the like button dude, best video ive seen on this and im finally understanding after years!! thank you!!

[@tecladocode]

Awesome, thank you! Happy to help!

[@ahmedw5]

This clarified what virtual environments are for me, thank you!

[@laserdiscbisque]

I've been trying to learn to code on my own/online for nine months and this was the most valuable 15 minutes so far

[@Uhtredrag1080]

Wish he said what program he was running all that code in. Nothing I open on any of the python options looks like that.

[@jasonpreneveau8608]

Finally, an explanation on a topic : venvs

[@sdmagic]

This was exactly what was needed. Your explanation was crystal clear and solved a lot of problems I was having. Thank you for your expertise, time, and efforts. Cheers!

[@tecladocode]

Glad it helped! Thank you!

[@some1stoleit]

Thank You! This is one of those topics I feel no-one really explains. So you end up banging your head against a wall while following a tutorial steps exactly and getting error messages. So it's good you manged to explain how it works and why I should use virtual environments succinctly.

[@tecladocode]

Thank you very much Ronald! Understanding what’s going on behind the scenes is really useful, especially if you have to troubleshoot something 😅

[@luisgomez124_G]

This is the best video for understand virutal enviroments from scratch, great video and thank you

[@QQuadmax]

I really appreciate the details. I would use this video as an example every time i am lost

[@nick8292]

Thanks for the clear info. I'm a beginner and had to do a bit of Stack Overflowing to get the whole thing set up on Windows, like setting up the environment path and the execution policy. Cheers, thanks again!

[@realmetaprince]

A very concise explanatory video, thank you for this.

[@gianlucatioli6766]

Incredible and Godsent video. I'am new with package installation and I was so nervous because I had absolutely no idea as to what exactly to do with virtual environment. Now, I've hit the ground running with virtual environments and some other important stuff! Much appreciated Jose!

[@CodingSquid]

Nicely done. Just finished your WSL2 class on another training web site. Virtual Environments are a mystery no more, Thanks

[@tecladocode]

I don't have any WSL2 classes 🤔 but thank you nonetheless, glad you liked the video!

[@LorenzoGentile-sw9tn]

Very thorough explanation! Thank you for explaining how virtual environments work rather than just how to use them!!

[@tecladocode]

Glad it was helpful! Thanks for the comment!

[@adhirdas1995]

This video helped me a lot. Virtual environments always seemed scary to me but now I understand it.

[@Frest99]

Simple and clear explanation. Now I know what i'm doing and don't just copy and paste commands. Thank you very much!

[@narendrakumarbalyammuralid7546]

quick and straight to the concept venv, dependency management using pip

[@A2ZAZZ]

This is best explanation I've seen in KZbin about this topic. Thanks !

[@fgaguaviva]

Thank you for all the content you make Jose! Having access to short video lessons of this quality is such a luck for us. By the way, I’m almost done with The Complete Python Course and I must say that it is simply amazing, congratulations for what you have achieved with that.

[@tecladocode]

Thank you so much Félix! Im really happy that you’re enjoying the course! I’ll continue making short videos and series as well! 💪

[@juanalvarez-perez6295]

You have helped me so much! I was looking for a guide like this for months, after I screwed with my dependencies. I finally found this video after I thought all hope was lost. I appreciate your hard work!

[@dirtrockground4543]

Great video thanks, most tutorials seem to assume you know why we need to create a virtual environment.

[@zer0sk8]

Very well explained and with a lot of details. Easy even people which are not familiar with software developing. Thanks a lot !!

[@lucyfrye6723]

Thanks, that was very clear, I ended up making such a mess of my python installation that I ended up reinstalling macos. Never that again, it cost me half a day wasting time on setting everything up again.

[@manudewi]

Thank you so so much, this was the best, concise, follow along video to me. It freed me from my virtual environment blockade. Gracias 🙏

[@SidePotOprah]

Kudos! Thanks for the quick and easy guide!

[@DDavis0226]

Fantastic! OMG, thank you for this! It really helped me understand how it works!

[@MrPatrickbuit]

I love how you explain not just how to set up a virtual environment, but also why we do it. Great stuff :)

[@finixik]

Excellent video. I am really grateful for this dose of knowledge.

[@pablomunsey]

Great presentation. Short but sufficiently detailed. Well done!

[@guohaotan7617]

this really brings clarity to my understanding

[@Sylfa]

A tip for figuring out which version the command prompt is finding is to run the command: where python It'll return each python.exe it finds in the path in the order it would execute them, so the first line returned is the one that will run when you execute python. And now you know which folder will be the first valid python folder in your path.

[@gdsimpson3]

"Which python" for mac and linux users 👍👍

[@batsiziki119]

This is video is so easy to follow and helped me a great deal. Thank you very much man.

[@animel8ve]

Thank you so much. This was one of the best videos ever. 😊

[@patmaloyan620]

great vid, well detailed and learned even more than just venv. Detail helped me get better grasp of how windows os and py work.

[@Oliver-ho4jz]

Awesome video with key bits of information that I've wanted answers to for a while that are difficult questions to ask the internet!

[@viktorilienko1509]

Great video, thank you for the explanation. The video after all could be shortened to 2 steps (let it be a cheatsheet for me and others): 1) run C:\python\Python_3.6.4\python.exe -m venv .env 2) run 'activate.bat', for example, C:\Projects\Learning\Python\python_automation_mentoring\sandbox\pytest_example\.env\Scripts\activate.bat

[@reinasama904]

I learned a lot through your video. Tremendous help and such a quality! Thank you so much.

[@valostudent6074]

i finally understand how venv works,thank you , u are awsum

[@diegodifelix]

What a great video. Thank you very much. I did a resume to me.

[@jackdexter3286]

Really clear, simple, and explains a lot of things that beginners never hear like path, creating venv with a specific python, how venv work, etc. Thx a lot

[@Jamaipanese]

Amazing video. Simple, clear and to the point with examples. Thank you!

[@xLatinAssazzin]

Simple my ass

[@udirt]

Thank you for the explanation. It is still incomprehensible how the python community (we belong to) has decided to live like this.

[@СергейЗинченко-т2к]

thank you, bro! its very easy to understand, gl!

[@dgurl04]

This was so beautifully and simply explained. Thank You for this video. Happy New Year

[@dcdales]

Semver in Python - so much more intuitive than JS. Thank you, Python!

[@nayan7065]

Most needed video. Good explaination

[@samana991]

Thanks for the explanations; good stuff!

[@jikkhi]

I can't thank you enough for explaining about virtual env in detail. This was so helpful 🙌👏

[@briancarroll9433]

Great intro to virtual environments. To activate the virtual environment when using PowerShell, I had to run the command: venvName\Scripts\Activate.ps1 instead of venvName\Scripts\activate.bat

[@JoelRivera3]

Brian good catch. Also, if it doesnt work you will need to set the execution policy to either Bypass or AllSigned. Bypass all scripts are allowed, Allsigned only trusted so when you run third party scripts you will have to trust them first. I ran in powershell 'Set-ExecutionPolicy -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Scope CurrentUser' you can always reverse it to how it was whether it was restricted or undefined after completing your virtual environment project.

[@thecodeartificer]

I've watch your udemy videos! This feels nostalgic haha.

[@ntoslinux]

Awesome explanation. Appreciate for taking time to create it!

[@ishwarcm.5009]

[@tecladocode]

Glad it was helpful!

[@ahmedelsayedabdelnabyrefae1365]

Hi man one of the best explanation I have ever seen thank you it really helped

[@JITCompilation]

So when you "boot up a virtual environment", you're simply changing the system's environment variables, such as the PATH, so they point to folders in your virtual environment folder?

[@sahilsagwekar]

Thats the first part of the virtual environment. You also create a copy of the interpreter with the packages specific to the new venv

[@JITCompilation]

@@sahilsagwekar gotcha, thanks!

[@Sn0wwh173]

This was so incredibly helpful! Thanks so much!

[@ekeminiudoetuk4056]

Please I can't move past 5:30... how do I grab the path to the installation package? Help me

[@niceteg]
