2. Virtual Enviornment - We recommend working within a virtual environment whenever using Python for projects. This keeps your dependencies for each project separate and organaized. Instructions for setting up a virual enviornment for your platform can be found in the python docs

3. PIP Dependencies - Once you have your virtual environment setup and running, run:

pip install -r requirements.txt

This will install all of the required packages we selected within the requirements.txt file.
