Getting Started

Python Commands

*Here's a bunch of shell commands to do various python things. You should run these in the base folder of the repo.

Install Dependency

# This installs the dependency and makes it available to your code
pip3 install <dependency>

# This updates the dependencies.txt file
pip3 freeze > requirements.txt

Install dependencies listed in requirements.txt

You should do this whenever requirements.txt changes. If you don't do it and you don't have issues, you're fine!

# Muncher
pip3 install -r requirements.txt

Updated running instructions

In one terminal, run:

flask --debug run
