Pipenv is unusable for me, since launching your app only works when your current working directory is the Pipfile directory. If you want to launch an app via a shell script from another directory, you have to first cd to the Pipfile dir, pipenv shell (maybe you can pass in a second shell script as an argument).

The article mentions Pipsi is designed to make command-line apps globally accessible, and I'll try it out.

Additionally, adding git/src/package/module.py may be fine when you're using an IDE, but when browsing in a file manager, you must navigate 3 directories deep to even see any source files, which seems to be trending towards the inconvenience amd pain of Java projects.
