I'm starting development with virtualenv and some doubts have arisen, they are:

Should Python scripts be inside the virtual environment folder?

In the PyCharm IDE, do you need to configure something to develop in the enabled virtual environment?

If I need to run the scripts on another machine that does not have the virtual environment set up, do I need to configure it from scratch?

python python-3.x virtualenv

The answer to the first question is: No! and does not seem to make sense, what I see (and do not use) is the opposite, the venv be in a directory within your project.

Yes, in pycharm you have to say with which venv your project will work, set it to File / settings / project interpreter.

In the machine that will run the project must have all the packages required by the same, whether or not in a virtual env. To do this use a requirements file, commonly called requirements.txt

To start managing virtual environments in python, consider using anaconda. See, here in STOpt, this answer , and open that door with a golden key. : -)
