Isolate Projects with Virtual Environments

Use venv and conda to keep projects from colliding.

One Python, Many Projects

Install everything into one global Python and projects start fighting over versions. A virtual environment gives each project its own private space. 🧪

What venv Actually Does

A venv is just a folder holding its own Python and packages. Activate it and pip installs land there, not system-wide.
