Let's get going and write some code. Now, since this is the very first time we're opening any of
0:07
the code from this course, I'm gonna take you through a couple of steps of setting it up afterwards.
0:13
We'll just jump right in. Okay. Over here you can see I've get cloned this repo that I shared
0:19
with you before and I'm gonna drop it over on the PyCharm on MacOS. You can drop the folders on Linux and windows,
0:28
you have to say file, open directory. So here we have the starter version. Of course this will be more filled out as we get going.
0:38
If you look down here in the right, you can see that PyCharm has made a bad choice for
0:43
us. Remember this has to be Python 3.11 or newer for this to work. Right? And it's decided, you know what? We're going to be totally good with 3.9,
0:53
I've got 3.9, 10 and 11 installed. So let's go and add a local interpreter. I'm gonna pick a new virtual environment and again it guessed wrong,
1:06
but it got slightly better guess 3.10 that time. So we're gonna say 3.11 here is what I want to base this on,
1:14
Go ahead and update that as well. Okay, now you can see we've got 3 11 this virtual environment
1:23
set up here. So just make sure whether using PyCharm or you're using visual studio code when it auto
1:29
detects the virtual environment, that is the right one.
1:32
Or if there's not a virtual environment at all and it's going to create one, make sure you get the version 3.11.
