My question is related to
Why is Shapely not installing correctly?
However it is not working and I am struggling to find information/understand how to install it.
I am running my own environment using venv.
I have downloaded the binary correct to my Windows architecture (64-bit) and python version (3.7.3) from https://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#shapely.
My pip version is updated to last version (pip-19.0.3).
I have placed the file in the root of my app where I am running my venv from.
In my cmd terminal I am trying
pip install Shapely-1.6.4.post2-cp37-cp37m-win_amd64.whl
But this just give me
ERROR: Shapely-1.6.4.post2-cp37-cp37m-win_amd64.whl is not a supported wheel on this platform.
What am I doing wrong?

From a Windows command prompt with Python, you can now install Shapely like this:
this will download and install the binary wheels from PyPi for Windows, macOS or Linux.
