Getting Started

Make you have some recent version of Python installed on your system. Optionally use pyenv to manage your Python installation (install Python version 3.5.1).

Install Django by opening the command line and running

pip install Django==1.9.7

Next, install Node.js. Download here or install via your favourite package manager.

Install Bower via command line. This will be used for front-end package management

npm install -g bower

Install necessary dependencies

pip install -r requirements.txt
bower install

Migrate SQLite database
