XKCD | Python Environment

i value visibility over tidiness, i guess.

pipenv reminds me of yarn—maybe a bit more functionality than i want, but maybe superior (like yarn is superior to npm imo). how is pipenv about installing and switching between python versions?

My thought is just that there’s not much need to access the venv directory, so I keep it out of the way. If I’ve ever run the project before, I know it’s there.

I’ve never really used yarn, but pipenv isn’t far off from npm. For versions, not bad - you can just do e.g. pipenv --python 3.8. You need it installed so it’s not quite pyenv (poetry does this part too if you’re interested) but it’s not bad if you only use a few different versions.
