In this short video I show you just how easy it is to create environments in Julia. It is very important to keep separate environments for your projects. Environments allow you to keep versions of individual packages separate from your base Julia installations. I will go as far as stating that you should not install packages directly into your base Julia installation. There are just too many version incompatibilities between continuously updating packages.
To create an environment we simply type some code into a Terminal. Both lines of code require that Julia is in your systems' PATH.
