Last Updated on 2022-08-10 by Kassandra

When it comes to the programmer life, virtualenvwrapper-win can ensure your projects are safe when other unrelated projects are updated. But it’ so much more than that ….

Intro To virtualenvwrapper Series

I will be doing a series on how to use this amazing tool. If you want to be alerted to updates, be sure to subscribe using the little bell in the bottom left hand corner. I’ll walk you through the how below.

Introduction to virtualenvwrapper

While there are many ways with which you can do virtual environments (some cheat sheet info I’ve even created here), my absolute favorite is with virtualenvwrapper – or if you’re on Windows like me …

Then you’re using virtualenvwrapper-win!

And in the below video, I will share:

• what are virtual environments? (or virtual machines)
• why you should be using virtual environments
• my favorite tool for creating & managing virtual environments (can you guess what it might be?)

Working With Multiple Python Versions

When you’re working on multiple projects, it is entirely possible that you will require multiple versions of python.

Why?

Because sometimes you need to upgrade particular modules that no longer support older versions.

This article will not go into that, but be sure to join my discord server to be alerted when I share more on this.

How to Use A Specific Python Version When Creating A Virtual Environment

Just like you can with virtualenv as part of setup, you can leverage virtualenvwrapper-win to create a virtual environment using a specific python version that is installed.

Video to come soon. I created a cheat sheet is here in the mean time.

Python Programming Basics Bootcamp

Ever wanted hands-on help in understanding python?
Or maybe you’ve not even had the pleasure of an introduction?

Doors open soon for my Python Basics Bootcamp!

If you’re looking to have the tech part of programming
(i.e. software engineering) broken down into byte-sized pieces?

You’ve come to the right place!

I’ll be opening the doors to my step-by-step education & implementation soon.
