For the creation of virtual environments (VE) anaconda is used. You can download anaconda here: https://www.anaconda.com/distribution/
After installing anaconda into your system follow the steps bellow to work in a virtual environment.
Creation of the VE:
conda create python=3.7 --name deep-ts
Activating the VE:
conda activate deep-ts
Installing all the packages from the requirements.txt file to the virtual environment:
pip install -r requirements.txt
If you are using Microsoft Visual Studio code there may be some additional pop ups indiciating that some packages should be installed (linter or ikernel).
