virtualenv vs. venv (beginner - intermediate) anthony explains #040

Excellent! I know it's years later, but this was a very good succinct explanation!
I do have some additional questions.
If I built a Django project using system python packages instead of in a virtual environment, how do I move my Django project into a virtual environment to isolate it? Is it as simple as copying or moving the Django project directory into the same directory that contains the virtual env folder?

Can they work in background as a service or a normal application? And probably run using cronjob?

Are you running windows 11 with ubuntu subsytem?

Tl,DR: just use virtualenv, not venv.

Having 2 packages managers with the very same name is soooo confusing from a beginner point of view

You have a really nice persona, and thank you for your explanation. I shall look for other explanations from you :)

Thanks for this, Anthony... another great video.

anything on microcrash is annoying

Nice. Always wondered about this.

but how do you use conda with 6 different versions of python at once?
how does no one mention this? conda can't handle different versions of python! why doesn't it work with this!

How about pyenv?

Does it make multiple copies of the packages in the directory? Is there a way to minimize that?

always wondered whats the difference and thank you so much for this video, very informative

This video left me more confused on which one is recommended to be used.

How do you access windows cmd directly from Ubuntu ?

Cheers Anthony for the clarification - virtualenv & venv.

can u upload a video about pyenv?

Great explanation!

this tutorial became a bit confusing because you are explaining the difference between two different tools that kind of do the same thing, and where the thing that they create is referenced by the same name as one of those tools
