I did not know about pip freeze, doh. Thanks will check that out!

Edit: so if I understand it, this is just listing all packages in the current python env and writing them to a file. Hm, requires more discipline than the npm equivalent. But thats a natural consequence of pip defaulting to installing packages globally (vs npm which installs in local node_modules by default). Better but still not awesome IMO

That’s why most folks recommend poetry or anything else made in the past decade. pip can work, it just doesn’t have sane (for 2020s) defaults.
