To ensure that you're ready for the workshop, please make sure that you have Python installed on your system.
The Python community has installers for many flavors of operating systems, including Windows and OSX. You can find the binaries here: https://www.python.org/download/releases/2.7/. For a more robust installation guide, navigate to the following URL: https://goo.gl/qivCuh. If you are running Windows, the Python binaries are not automatically added to your PATH environmental variable. Please ensure that you read the guide carefully to determine how you can add it to your environment.
You can download the workshop assets by pressing the "Download Zip" at the top-right of this repository page. Navigate to your project root directory. Execute python server.py and navigate to localhost:8000 in Chrome or Firefox. If you see a blank page, you should be set.
You are all set for the workshop on March 8th at 8 PM. I'm looking forward to seeing you there! I'll also spend a few minutes during the workshop going over these steps, so feel free to skip any steps that are confusing. If you run into any issues/concerns, shoot an email to vnair611@gmail.com. I'd be more than happy to help debug your environment issues. You can skim through the workshop slides as well here: https://goo.gl/P9zrCS
