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.

Viv's uncompromising insistence on portability means that it will always:

1. only use the standard library
2. never exceed a single script.
