Huh, fair enough. I work on non-webapps too -- could you explain more about your use case?
- TylerE 13y agoLibraries that are very build-finicky (like various image processing libs) I've had bad luck with virtualenv, or env pip. Usually end up building by hand.
- stdbrouw 13y agoIf you're doing data analysis, where most libraries are serious about backwards compatibility and you don't necessarily care whether your code still runs two years from now... virtualenvs are sometimes just not worth the bother. (Though I'd still recommend them.)
