Question

Hi I have seen Prefect does not use pipenv nor poetry How do you virtualize the environments when working directly with pip Do you use virtualenv to create multiple python distributions and then work with plain pip

Anna Geller · Answer

all options are valid and depend on your personal preference Prefect should work with all of those options I personally use Conda and find this is the easiest and you can even supply the conda environment when deploying flows with Prefect 2 0 ```DeploymentSpec name= dev flow=test flow flow runner=SubprocessFlowRunner condaenv= yourvenv ```
