<h1>Make the Project Installable<a class="headerlink" href="#make-the-project-installable" title="Link to this heading"></a></h1>
<p>Making your project installable means that you can build a <em>wheel</em> file and install that
in another environment, just like you installed Flask in your projects environment.
This makes deploying your project the same as installing any other library, so youre
using all the standard Python tools to manage everything.</p>
<p>Installing also comes with other benefits that might not be obvious from
the tutorial or as a new Python user, including:</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li><p>Currently, Python and Flask understand how to use the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">flaskr</span></code>
package only because youre running from your projects directory.
Installing means you can import it no matter where you run from.</p></li>
<li><p>You can manage your projects dependencies just like other packages
do, so <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">pip</span> <span class="pre">install</span> <span class="pre">yourproject.whl</span></code> installs them.</p></li>
<li><p>Test tools can isolate your test environment from your development
environment.</p></li>

<h2>Install the Project<a class="headerlink" href="#install-the-project" title="Link to this heading"></a></h2>
<p>Use <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">pip</span></code> to install your project in the virtual environment.</p>
<div class="highlight-none notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span>$ pip install -e .
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>This tells pip to find <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">pyproject.toml</span></code> in the current directory and install the
project in <em>editable</em> or <em>development</em> mode. Editable mode means that as you make
changes to your local code, youll only need to re-install if you change the metadata
about the project, such as its dependencies.</p>
<p>You can observe that the project is now installed with <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">pip</span> <span class="pre">list</span></code>.</p>
