Project Structure

.
├── venv/               # Virtual environment (excluded from version control)
├── src/
│   └── main.py        # Main application entry point
├── requirements.txt   # Production dependencies (auto-generated)
├── requirements.dev.txt # Development dependencies (auto-generated)
└── ...                # Other project files

Installation & Setup

1. Create Virtual Environment

Best practice: Use separate environments per project [4]

python3 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate  # Linux/Mac
# venv\Scripts\activate  # Windows

2. Install Dependency Management Tools

pip install pip-tools  # Enables precise dependency control [3]

3. Install Dependencies

First create/edit these files:

• requirements.in (main dependencies)
• requirements.dev.in (development dependencies)

Then compile and sync:

pip-compile requirements.in  # Generates requirements.txt
pip-compile requirements.dev.in  # Generates requirements.dev.txt
pip-sync requirements.txt requirements.dev.txt

Development Tools

Consider including these common tools [3]:

# requirements.dev.in
black      # Code formatting
ruff       # Linting
pytest     # Testing
python-dotenv  # Environment management

Usage

python src/main.py
