How to install Pip for Python on Ubuntu 20.04 | VPS Tutorial

Pip is a tool for installing Python packages. With pip, you can search, download, and install packages from the Python Package Index (PyPI) and other package indexes.

Python comes in two flavors: Python 2 and Python 3. Starting from Ubuntu 20.04, Python 3 is included in the base system installation, and Python 2 is available for installation from the Universe repository. Users are encouraged to switch to Python 3.

When installing a Python module globally, it is highly recommended to install the module’s deb package with the apt tool as they are tested to work properly on Ubuntu systems. Python 3 packages are prefixed with python3- and Python 2 packages are prefixed with python2-.

Use pip to install a module globally only if there is no deb package for that module. Prefer using pip within a virtual environment only. Python Virtual Environments allows you to install Python modules in an isolated location for a specific project rather than being installed globally. This way, you do not have to worry about affecting other Python projects.
