The Python Packaging Authority has a guide
<URL:https://packaging.python.org/tutorials/installing-packages/#creating-virtual-environments>
which seems good to me.

The standard library documentation for the ‘venv’ library
<URL:https://docs.python.org/3/library/venv.html> is essential.

Follow the documentation maintained by the Python Packaging Authority
<URL:https://packaging.python.org/>.
