`Viv` is a standalone dependency-free `venv` creator.
These `venvs` can be identified by name or by their specification.
In any case they will be re-used across scripts (and generated on-demand, if needed).
`Viv`'s uncompromising insistence on portability means that it will always:
**Importantly**, `viv` will also remove your user site directory.
(view with: `python -m 'import site;print(site.USER_SITE)'`).
`Viv`'s uncompromising insistence on portability means that it will always (1) only use the standard library (2) never exceed a single script.
1. only use the standard library
2. never exceed a single script.
For that reason any usage of the `CLI` can be accomplished using a remote copy as seen in the below install command.

Advanced users may recognize that principally,
the module just needs to be recognized at run time
and the single script [`viv.py`](https://github.com/daylinmorgan/viv/blob/main/src/viv/viv.py) can be invoked directly for the CLI.
How you accomplish these options is ultimately up to you but the above instructions can get you started.

An experimental feature of `viv` is generating shim's that leverage the principles of `viv`.
These shims would operate similar to `pipx` in which you can specify a command line app to "install".
*Note* that `--standalone` will auto-generate a code-golfed minified version of `viv` to accomplish the same basic task as using a local copy of `viv`.
After generating this a standalone `shim` you can freely use this script across unix machines which have `python>3.8`.
