State Tool: How to create a Python runtime from a requirements.txt file
You can create a Python project on the ActiveState Platform by importing a requirements.txt using the State Tool. Watch the video to see how.

At ActiveState, we use the Platform to build not only our popular open-source language distributions but also custom runtimes for our enterprise clients (i.e., builds containing just the language and packages their project requires). Try it out yourself or get a demo and understand how it can support your enterprise’s open-source needs.
New to the ActiveState Platform? Here’s how to get started:
Use our Platform to build a custom runtime for your next project, including just the language and packages your project needs:
- Choose a language (Python, Perl, or Tcl right now).
- Select your operating system (Linux or Windows, plus Mac for Python).
- Add the packages your project requires.
ActiveState regularly pulls packages from each language’s standard open-source repository (CPAN, PyPI, etc.) to ensure that your open-source language and components are up to date, can be compiled from source, and are then verified to work together in a distribution that is packaged for most major operating systems.
