Where do I put my .py/project files when I create an environment with conda, does it go in the conda environment?

Question

Okay so I created a conda environment conda create --name myfirstenv then I did conda activate myfirstenv , and installed a bunch of packages like openpyxl and jupyter notebook and whatever. So where do I place my files, like let's say I create an automation.py file which does some automation with csv reader or whatever, do the files go inside the myfirstenv environment?

Answer 1

No, your environment folder contains the dependencies and python execute file to run your code. As for your project files, it can be anywhere. When you want to run the files, you active the environment to use the python and the dependencies inside of it to run the files.
