Python 3.8.2
Django 3.1.4

The beginnings of a simple twitter-like platform. I am following this tutorial, but will also be experimenting with other features and various ways to implement them.

• Install Python and Git
• Clone repo from cmd or terminal: git clone https://github.com/MattiWheels/Twitteresque-Django-App
• Navigate into the project folder: cd Twitteresque-Django-App
• Set up a virtual environment to consolidate packages: python -m venv venv
• Activate virtual environment: venv\Scripts\activate or source venv/bin/activate on Unix based systems
• Install the required packages: pip install -r requirements.txt
• Update the SECRET_KEY variable to have a random string of characters (fine for testing purposes)
• Be sure to create necessary database files by navigating to mysite (cd mysite) and running the following bash commands: python manage.py makemigrations followed by python manage.py migrate
