I think you might have misconfigured your virtual environment or some packages aren't being installed properly. I ran the program myself. It sorta worked. Let me know if I can help.

Hi!
you need install python-decouple not decouple

if you have installed decouple first uninstall with:
pip uninstall decouple

then install python-decouple:
pip install python-decouple

or only replace the requirements file with:
python-decouple==3.4
