Using pipenv

[gogvale]

It is considered a good practice to use an environment on python projects.
This way we don't have to worry about incompatibility and breaking system packages.

I added instructions on how to use pipenv for the project and created a Pipfile (which is equivalent to requirements.txt). Worked on my machine (Ubuntu 19.10)

I can't seem to run my pipenv properly using Python 3.7 (complains about not being able to get Babel). Setting this to 3.8 however does work for me. Is this a problem?

[gogvale]

Not sure, let me check (3.7 seems to be my system's default python3 version)
Can you show the error?

[mobeigi]

Doesn't really matter but this can be https://pypi.org/simple

I can't seem to use a python version not installed in my system using pipenv (using requirements.txt seems like an easy solution for the problem, since there's no need to specify a python version)

What do you think?

To allow more Python versions, you can add the following to the Pipfile.lock:

[requires]
python_version ~= “3.6”
# The rest of your packages

This will allow use of Python versions >=3.6 but <4

@iksaku I don't think that is possible as described here:
pypa/pipenv#1050 (comment)

As of right now the solution is pretty clean. pipenv converts the requirements.txt file by default if no Pipfile is found.
Lets merge this!
