After a long "trial and error" (both under UNIX* and Windows), I settled on the following approach, which has never let me down so far.
The main idea is to install the Anaconda package and create independent virtual environments using the conda package manager.
Anaconda checks the compatibility of module versions (including dependencies). This minimizes the chance of breaking Python by simply installing or updating a module(s).
Algorithm for installing Anaconda and creating VirtualEnv (independent Python virtual environment):
- Install Anaconda or Miniconda
- Installing on Windows
- Installing on Linux
- Installing on macOS
