pipx

pipx is a command line tool to install and run Python command line applications in an isolated environment.

For example, to install the csvkit suite of command line tools, you would run pipx install csvkit. This will install the csvkit command line tool in an isolated environment, i.e. without installing csvkit in your global Python environment or currently activated virtual environment, and make the tools available on your path.

pipx is distinct from pip, but it uses pip to install packages in the isolated environment.
