I'm planning to upgrade Python from version 3.10 to 3.14, but I'm wondering what will happen to all my libraries that are currently installed in specific subfolders for 3.10 (like `.local/lib/python3.10/site-packages/ttkbootstrap`). Will they automatically migrate to 3.14, or do I need to take additional steps?

Unfortunately, upgrading Python doesn't automatically transfer your libraries. What you should do is create a requirements file using `pip freeze > requirements.txt`, and then you can install the libraries in a new environment set up for Python 3.14 by running `pip install -r requirements.txt`. This way, you can ensure that you have your libraries available in the new version.
Thanks! I haven't used virtual environments before, but it sounds like I need to start.
