`Viv` is a standalone dependency-free `venv` creator [^1].
`Viv` helps you ignore silly things like managing temporary or rarely used virtual environments,
while still unleashing the full power of python scripting with it's entire ecosystem at your disposal.
while still unleashing the full power of Python scripting with its entire ecosystem at your disposal.
`Viv`'s uncompromising insistence on portability means that it will always:
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.

Why is this *not recommended*? Mainly, because `viv` is all about hacking your `sys.path`.
Placing it in it's own virtual environment or installing in a user site directory may complicate this endeavor.

## Bonus: use `viv` with just standalone snippet (37LOC)
`--standalone` will auto-generate a mini function version of `viv` to accomplish the same basic task as using a local copy of `viv`.
After generating this standalone `shim` you can freely use this script across unix machines which have `python>3.8`.
See [examples/black](https://github.com/daylinmorgan/viv/blob/dev/examples/black) for output of below command.
