 As we have seen, Pkg.jl is the Julia equivalent of `pip` or `conda` for Python.
 It lets you [install packages](https://pkgdocs.julialang.org/v1/managing-packages/) and [manage environments](https://pkgdocs.julialang.org/v1/environments/) (collections of packages with specific versions).
 
 You can activate an environment from the Pkg REPL by specifying its path `]activate somepath`.
+You create new environments simply by activating a path that does not contain an environment. The necessary files are created automatically once you `]add` packages.
 Typically, you would do `]activate .` to activate the environment in the current directory.
 Another option is to directly start Julia inside an environment, with the command line option `julia --project=somepath`.

 Packages installed that way are available no matter which local environment is active, because of "environment [stacking](https://docs.julialang.org/en/v1/manual/code-loading/#Environment-stacks)".
