2. source venv/bin/activate.( For windows run workon venv )

Install dependencies:

(while in the activated virtual environment)

pip install -r requirements.txt

NOTE: After installing dependencies, pip-tools is also installed. You can now use it to manage package dependencies of your project.

Add a new package to requirements.txt and run the following command to auto-update requirements.txt file

pip freeze > requirements.txt

pip-sync

This will install/upgrade/uninstall everything necessary to match the requirements.txt contents.
