Re: install with package manager or pip

I setup my folder this way:
/project/VirtEnv
/project/mysite
File like requirement.txt, readme, licence and .gitignore are in
/project, /project/mysite contain manage.py and all the django file,
/project/VirtEnv is managed by virtualenv and pip. I don't look at the
content of the folder most of the time.

The (VirtEnv) at the start of your prompt tell you that VirtEnv is
activated. That's the way it should be used. Once activated, python
will be the version of python in your virtualenv, with access to all
the library you have installed.
