 ## Set up python
 
 Python 3.8 is required for development as it is considered the _target_ release. **Nox** tests other variants when available as well but 3.8 is required. If you do not have 3.8 installed the recommended option is to use [pyenv](https://github.com/pyenv/pyenv)
 
+Alternatively, using plane older virtualenvs is good option as well. Run the following commands to set up a virtualenv:

+```bash
+python3 -m venv venv

+source venv/bin/activate
+# Windows
+venv\Scripts\activate.bat
