As someone who has largely moved from Python to Node: it's not the concept of project-local packages that is the problem. It's virtualenv's awful implementation

- pletnes 9y agoTried conda or pipenv?
- andybak 9y agoMaybe I've got Stockholm Syndrome but I never have any trouble with pip. I don't find it any worse than npm for my usage patterns.
- jplatte 9y agoI'm one of those people who are really confused about the whole Python project management situation. Is there a resource where I can learn the equivalent of common operations found in other project management tools such as npm / yarn / cargo? E.g. is there something like 'cargo run' that just checks that the required python version is installed (I got the impression that this can be specified somewhere), installs deps if they're not installed yet and then runs the main module? Or something like 'npm install --save' that adds the latest version of a package you already know the name of as a dependency and installs it?
