Isolate Your Python Projects with Venvs

If you're working on Python projects, please make friends with virtual environments! It’s easy to forget, but installing packages globally can lead to dependency hell when Project A needs library version 1.0 and Project B needs 3.0. A quick python -m venv .venv creates an isolated space where your dependencies live only for that specific project. This makes your requirements.txt reliable and ensures your project is portable, saving you massive headaches down the line.
