pipx is a tool that helps you install and run Python applications in isolated environments.

Windows is excluded from supported_envs because it requires an exe file to be generated, which is not included in the releases.

done! ✨ 🌟 ✨

$ pipx list

The default binary location for pipx-installed apps is ~/.local/bin. This can be overridden with the environment variable PIPX_BIN_DIR.

pipx's default virtual environment location is typically ~/.local/share/pipx on Linux/Unix, ~/.local/pipx on MacOS and ~\pipx on Windows.

Windows

Windows is excluded from supported_envs because it requires an exe file to be generated, which is not included in the releases.

I looked into this a bit.

I tried to install pipx on Windows using aqua, but it didn't work.
