I must confess feeling a small amount of anxiety at the onset of this endeavor. If it’s also your first time working with a branched github repository, these steps may help you find your way through the dark forest of repo branching.

Step one: Create the Branch

git checkout -b yourbranch

Step two: Create virtual environment locally

source env/bin/activate

Step three: Install requirements

From terminal, enter:pip3 install -r requirements.txt

More to come
