Note however that this option will use more disk space compared to a system installation if you decide to use virtual environments: each environment will install its own set of dependencies instead of relying on those available on the system. The project comes with `platyvenv`, that will be installed in your prefix upon Platypush installation. You can use it to build, remove, start, stop and list Platypush virtual environments.
