    Dude, thank you SO MUCH! This video was exactly what I needed. At work I'm learning to code in Python, but the whole env is already set-up (with pytest, flake8, kite, ...) No one could show me how to set up a similar environment on my personal machine. Over the last few hours I've tried PyCharm (horrible to set up!), IDLE, ... the works, but to no avail. Then I found this video, and it fits my situation 100%. Again, so damn grateful! Instant sub :-)

    For those using windows :
    Creating a virtual environment
    py -3 -m venv venv
    Activating virtual environment
    venv\Scripts\activate
    De-activating virtual environment
    deactivate
    Also if you have problems activating the virtual environment. Run Windows PowerShell in Administrator and run
    Set-ExecutionPolicy -ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted

    If you are using windows and you ran the command in the terminal and get the error "cannot be
    loaded because running scripts is disabled on this system", I recommend doing the following (it worked for me):
    1. Run Windows Powershell
    2. Run command Get-ExecutionPolicy -List to see if you have CurrentUser and/or LocalMachine as "restricted". (This prevents the running of scripts).
    3. Change CurrentUser to RemoteSigned by running command: Set-ExecutionPolicy -ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned -Scope CurrentUser. Press Enter and type 'Y' for Yes
    4. Change LocalMachine to AllSigned: Set-ExecutionPolicy -ExecutionPolicy AllSigned -Scope LocalMachine
    5. Run Get-ExecutionPolicy -List again to ensure they are reset.
    It should work now when you enter py -3 -m venv venv and venv\Scripts\activate in VS terminal. 😄
    Go to Microsoft and search "about_Execution_Policies" for more instructions

    Great tutorial Brad. Thank you. I feel like this was ahead of my learning level which gives me a bit of home work to do. Also there are a few things different on windows but worked them out along the way. Firstly to create and activate virtual environment. Creating py -3 -m venv venv and to activate just ./venv/Scripts/activate other than that most other things are the same. Thanks for your helpful tutorials. Also if you could do a favor to future viewers please add the windows differences in comments or mention it.

    Take note, when you work with portable versions of Visual studio code and Python you will have to browse for the interpreter. Do this in the following way:
    1. Open a Python file in Visual Studio Code
    2. Select the language mode in the bottom right corner (it not done yet).
    3. Click on "Select Python Interpreter" in the bottom left corner. In this video it is where you see the words "python 3.8.1 64-bit"
    4. A "Select interpreter" window will appear at the top. Click on "Enter interpreter path…"
    5. Browse for "python.exe" which is normally in the folder "python-x.y.z.amd64"

    Now you can also run your Jupyter notebook directly from VS Code; it's pretty dope, and it's included in the Python plugin already. No need to use Ananconda for Data Science anymore. I prefer to use VSCode for all my hobby projects.
    But for more involved heavy coding that I do at work, when I have multiple microservices, I switch to a JetBrains editor.
