Verify Local Environment

Create Virtual Environment

In a terminal run the following commands from the root folder of the forked project.

Windows

python -m venv .\venv

macOS & Linux

python -m venv ./venv

Once that completes, also run this command from the same folder.

Windows

venv\Scripts\activate.bat

macOS & Linux

source venv/bin/activate

Now that you are working in the virtualenv, install the project dependencies with the following command.

pip install -r requirements.txt

Verify Setup

In order to verify that everything is setup correctly, run the following command, which should show you the failing tests. This is good! We'll be fixing this test once we jump into the build step.

pytest

Every time you want to check your work locally you can type that command, and it will report the status of every task in the project.

Previewing Your Work

You can preview your work by running flask run in the root of your fork and then visithttp://localhost:5000 in your browser.
