So in summary, what do we need to run our app? What do you got to do to get your system ready? I know there's a few steps here,
0:07
but I really wanted to put together an app that felt like a real app and not just a toy. So that's a couple of steps.

Number one, you have Python 3.9 or higher, ideally 3.12 or higher, but you know, go with the minimum version
0:21
if for some reason you have restrictions there. 3.9 is the minimum. Go and star and clone the GitHub repo
0:29
if you want to make changes and push those changes back, maybe fork it and then clone your fork so that you have permission to push changes back
0:36
and don't change it for everyone. Install a proper editor, an editor that understands the whole projects.

We'll see there's many moving pieces in web apps, like that is the nature of the web, and having a project structure-based editor
0:51
like PyCharm or VS Code is invaluable. We're going to need to run the database, so either have Mongo directly and be happy to run that.

And if you don't, install Docker Desktop, either the proper version or the Orbstack version. You can check those both out and see what you like.

And that's it. Once you get this stuff ready, you know, don't go on to the next chapter till you get these things done. They're all super quick.

And then let's move on and get into the code.
