Getting Started Section

[johnmathews]

This looks super interesting and I'd like to use it, but I'm not sure how to get started.
I've installed the requirements ok, but how do I begin using it?
It would be really useful to have a "getting started" section in the readme.

Some insights (not a getting started guide but some guidance for non techies to use this):

Great thanks. python ganestonk_terminal.py was what i was looking for.

Actually python gamestonk_terminal.py implies your terminal's current working directory is the same than gamestonk_terminal.py file location. But you can start it from wherever you want either giving it a relative path from where you currently are or an absolute path (more info).

Have fun!

Hey,

Yes, this is a good call. And I should have done it earlier one. Believe me that if I knew that so many people would be interested in the project, I would of!

I'm cleaning whole installation process, and then I'll write up a Getting Started document. With docker image I think this may make life much easier to non-devs.

Hey, let me know if this does the job:

Will close this issue. Re-open it if you have any suggestions to improve this.
