> What beginners (and even some more experienced programmers) need to learn about is --user. You install packages with `pip install --user thing`, and they become per-user installed (be sure to add `~/.local/bin` to your `$PATH`). This is enough to not require sudo and for 99% of cases is actually sufficient.

Is this relevant advice for packages needed by your web server account, e.g. www-data?
