Setting up the Environment

Setting up the Environment

Open Visual Studio Code and hit File -> Open Folder... to open your project where you stored the repo. Open a new terminal and check that python is properly installed by putting python into the terminal and if it tells you the version, type exit() to exit.

Type these commands:

python -m pip install --upgrade pip
pip install -r requirements.txt

If you didn't get any errors, you should be ready to go! Navigate to website_project (cd ./website_project/) and run the code with python manage.py runserver in the terminal. There should be a link to click to view how the code looks.

Happy Coding 🐱
