How to use pycharm venv at cross-platform (at linux – windows etc..)?

I have created a virtual environment in pycharm on windows.

I’ve cloned the project to a linux machine running Ubuntu 18.04 and tried creating a venv with same name at linux (I overwrote it with virtualenv venv) but I had to install requirements again.

Is there an any way run this existing venv to linux?

Answer

There is no way to do this simply because windows executables will not run on linux, just make sure you have a requirements.txt file. Additionally, you’ll run into other problems where venv bin scripts have improper #! lines if copy the venv.
