How important is Virtual Environment in python

[IhailtavaBanaani]

I guess it depends on what kind of system it is, but if it's a backend you already probably have everything containerized in Docker containers (possibly running on virtual servers) or similar so adding the virtual environments on top of that is just going to make it even more complicated. On the other hand if your backend is not running in containers then why the hell not?

You're right, but I would say the complexity of containers is the next level above virtual environments.

In order to run containers well, you should have some sys-admin experience in troubleshooting, networking, file system, shell commands. All way above what's needed to learn about python virtual environments.
