Does Conda replace the need for virtualenv?
I recently discovered Conda after I was having trouble installing SciPy, specifically on a Heroku app that I am developing.

In a conda environment (base here) I’m surprised by the order of directories in the python path:
I have installed a fresh anaconda v4.4. I realized that python packages can be installed using both conda and pip. What is the effect of using pip to install python packages instead of conda when using anaconda? Will the pip-installed libraries cease to function? I am using python v3
Can I install/upgrade packages from GitHub using conda?
Conda and conda-forge are both Python package managers. What is the appropriate choice when a package exists in both repositories? Django, for example, can be installed with either, but the difference between the two is several dependencies (conda-forge has many more). There is no explanation for these differences, not even a simple README.
Conda env is activated using source activate env_name.
I currently have Python 3.5.2 installed via Anaconda Continuum. I’m trying to upgrade to Python 3.6 but I’m getting the below error when I try to run conda install python=3.6:
Locate the directory for the conda environment in your Terminal
window, such as /home/jsmith/anaconda3/envs/analytics.
I’ve installed and have been using the Anaconda Python distribution, and I have started using the Anaconda (Conda) environment. I can use the standard conda install... command to put packages from the distribution into my environments, but to use anything outside (i.e. Flask-WTF, flask-sqlalchemy, and alembic) I need to use pip install in the active environment. However, when I look at the contents of the environment, either in the directory, or using conda list these pip installed packages don’t show up.
So I installed Anaconda and everything is working. After I installed it I decided to switch to oh-my-zsh. I am now getting:
