Thank you very much Dale! I know my grammar is not very good, but I continue learning :) Thanks for all the tips and explainations about my mistakes. I value them the most and I'm learning a lot. I will apply the changes to the document and after that I will probably cut it in two parts. The setup and the usage. Will come back with news! Thanks and cheers!

Self introduction
by Michal Cyprian 21 Jun '18

21 Jun '18

Hi, my name is Michal Cyprian. I have been involved in Fedora project for a couple of years already. Python related tasks are my main area of interest. I would like to promote Pipenv, the tool that can make life of many Python developers easier among Fedora users. Writing a short article for Fedora Magazine is a good way to do so in my opinion.
