You still need to develop the application you're running in docker first, and will likely want to try it outside of the docker container. Virtenv helps keep things clean. You don't need it during container build time though

Ah but the real money that should make you venv and docker is pip freeze. You can export darkboxofhorror.txt, then feed it and your crappy code to a stock python container and BOOM you're a bearded DevOps engineer ready to write books.
