Virtual environments are isolated Python environments. They allow freedom to install specific versions of dependencies without affecting the global site-packages. They also make it easy to throw away a 'broken' environment and start again. If you need further information regarding virtual environments, please see the virtualenvwrapper documentation.

    2. sudo pip install virtualenvwrapper
  2. Add the following to your ~/.bash_profile:
