Python: How to setup virtuel enviroment?

Question

I'm trying to set up a virtual environment for my Python + Django project, so I ran the following in my terminal:

pip3 install pipenv

Afterward while being in my folder I tried doing this

pipenv install django

but I keep getting this error, and I have no idea how to solve it. Not sure if this makes a difference but i work in VScode

zsh: command not found: pipenv

Any ideas on how to solve this problem?
