The pipx documentation details how to use the tool. Essentially, with Debian choosing to enable the new pip feature to disallow installing packages in the same location as system packages, or in ~/.local with --user, the recommendation is to use virtual environments instead. pipx handles this automatically for packages that define a console script entry point in their own environment then makes them available in ~/.local/bin.
