Step 1: Git

Git is the primary collaboration software for software development -- like Google Docs for programmers.

To check whether you have it installed go to your terminal, type “git” and hit enter. If you don’t see a bunch of instructions (see pic below), you don’t have git installed and need to install Git

Step 2: Github

Create a GitHub account if you don’t already have one.

Step 3: Python

Go to your terminal, type “python3” and hit enter. If you don’t see a “python prompt” (see pic below) then you need to install Python 3. Hit control-d or call the python exit() function to exit.

Step 4: Clone the Project with Git, install dependencies, and run it

Execute the following command in your terminal to clone the course and access the introductory “Lesson 0”:

git clone https://github.com/superquest/digital-cash.git
cd digital-cash
python3 -m virtualenv venv
source venv/bin/activate
python3 -m pip install -r requirements.txt
jupyter notebook

This will open up your web browser to a page that looks like the image below. This is Jupyter Notebook, which is basically a little website that’s run on only your computer.
