Instead of using sudo you can pass the --user flag to pip. By default pip will try and install packages to a system directory such as /usr/local/bin which requires root privileges.

you got a like from me, worked on 1st try, was pretty straight forward, although i suggest you explain what people will need first.

Wanted to say thanks for the video! I'm new to python & am making a scripting to clone (and potentially delete) all my 248 repos that I forked while enrolled in my bootcamp. This video helped me out a lot!

pretty cool thanks for sharing, I'm going to use this in a future project, I just have a question, do you know how to properly uninstall the package that we create, the one that gets installed with the pip install -e command, I tried a pip freeze to find its name (witch is huge xD) then I ran pip uninstall packagename, even thought I says it got correctly removed I'm getting a DistributionNotFound error whenever I call the command helloworld again, instead of the spected "command not found". Thanks again!
