After cloning/pulling new changes, go into the /TeamFriday-/oursite/ directory and make sure to:

Otherwise you will run into an error when running the server. Additionally, if you run into any backend related errors with our tables, see Migrations below to keep the db up to date.
If you make any changes to data models or anything db related, In the ./oursite directory run python manage.py makemigrations.
Then you can migrate by running python manage.py migrate.
In the ./oursite directory run python manage.py runserver.
- It's a good rule of thumb to keep note of your current branch and if you are ahead/behind the branch before doing anything.
- "git pull" updates your current repo with new changes depending on your selected branch. Good to do this before making changes.
Will be used often to update your branch:
- "git add" stages your changes.
- "git commit -m [message]" creates the commit.
- "git push" effectively sends your commit and all it's changes to your current branch.
