Development environment

The easiest way to set up your machine would be to use Vagrant, then in the project folder in the terminal type:

vagrant liverun

Backend setup

After installing Python 3, from the project folder:

sudo apt-get install python3-venv python3-dev libjpeg-dev
pyvenv env
. env/bin/activate

pip install -U pip
pip install -r requirements.txt

./manage.py migrate
./manage.py createsuperuser

You will be asked a few questions to create an administrator account.

Frontend setup

Make sure a recent version of node.js is installed, then:

npm install -g bower grunt-cli
npm install
npm install -g bower grunt-cli
bower install

Starting up

Run this after completing setup:

./manage.py runserver
grunt browser-sync

If you have one installed, also start your local redis server.
