Basically this. Every tool does the same thing slightly differently and all run into different variations of the exact same problem. Is your interpreter in your path? Do you have the right version of your modules installed?

Technically, OP didn’t have to use pipenv for anything except knowing which versions of each dependency to install (Pipfile.lock) with good old pip. Those other tools are mere conveniences. Giving up on a language for that...that’s drastic.
