should jedi be install in every python project environment?

I am using jedi and more specifically deoplete-jedi in neovim and I wonder if I should install it in every project as a dependency or if I can let jedi reside in the same python environment as neovim uses (and set the setting to tell deoplete-jedi where to look)

It seems wasteful to have to install it in ever project but then again IDK how it would find my project environment from within the neovim environment either.

If by the word "project"you mean Python virtual environments then yes, you have to install every program and every library that you use to every virtualenv separately. flake8, pytest, jedi, whatever. Python virtual environments are intended to protect one set of libraries from the other so that you could install different sets of libraries and even different versions of libraries. The price is that you have to duplicate programs/libraries that are used often.

There is a way to connect a virtualenv to the globally installed packages but IMO that brings more harm than good.
