8,668 PointsBest practices with venv?
I'm using visual studio code, and i I'm using Windows 10. Going down the road, what guidelines should i follow to help manage the messes i will inevitably create? What kinds of naming conventions help out a lot? where should i store stuff? are there any gotchas unexplained here in these videos? Now that it's 2019, what other tools should i look out for?

Treehouse Project ReviewerHey Jason Smith ! The general "rule" for venv is that you'll want one for every project you start. I personally name my venv folder env, but as long as you stick with a particular convention you'll be fine!
Thet thing with virtual environments is that they're essentially just temporary computers. If something goes wrong, you can safely delete the venv folder and create a new one.
