Virtual environments

To manage the installation of CARTOframes and the other associated Python 3 modules, we will be using the virtual environments package virtualenv. This Python module makes it easy to set up completely separate Python installations on the same computer. Using virtualenv, a copy of Python is created, and when activated, all modules that are installed are separate from the main Python installation (in other words, the modules installed inside a virtual environment will not be added to the main site-packages folder). This allows for a lot less package management headaches.
