As described, the start small, finish big, stay finished framework, Pyramid is much like Flask which takes very little effort to install and run. In fact, youll recognize that some of the patterns are similar to Flask once you start building this application.

Following are the steps to create pyramid framework environment −

• First, create a project directory. Here, we have created a directory named pyramidProject (you can choose any name you want).

• Next, create a virtual environment where you will install all the project specific dependencies. Here, we created a virtual environment folder named pyramidEnv where Pyramid is installed.

• Then, go to the directory, pyramidEnv and install the pyramid with pip3 install pyramid.

Once everything is done as mentioned above, your directory structure will be as shown below −

And the pyramid version installed in the system is given below −

>>> import pkg_resources
>>> print(pkg_resources.get_distribution("pyramid").version)
