There's a PEP for adding support for a __pythonpackages__ directory, similar to node_modules. https://peps.python.org/pep-0582/ https://peps.python.org/pep-0582/ Unfortunately the PEP is from 2018 and is still being discussed. The last post in the comment thread is from February. https://discuss.python.org/t/pep-582-python-local-packages-directory/963/134 https://discuss.python.org/t/pep-582-python-local-packages-d... That's unfortunate; until I went looking for citations I thought it was further along and actually scheduled for the next Python release. Looks like there is a pip-alternative that implements the PEP, but I haven't played around with it yet. https://pdm.fming.dev/ https://pdm.fming.dev/
