Cloning the Codebase

Upon purchasing pyShip, heading back to the site will lead you to the page where you can download the .zip file which contains the entire project structure.

P.S. our Discord community will also be linked, we would love it if you would join :)

Unpacking the .zip file + opening the project for the first time

Once the file is downloaded from the page, you will need to unzip it (should be self explanatory to complete). From there you can see the entire project structure including the Python files, the Templates folder, the Static folder, and most importantly, the requirements.txt file.

Ignore the “(Beta)”, all the files are similar to what you will be downloading.

From here, you can open the project in any desirable IDE or Text Editor, I personally use VSCode.

Downloading requirements with pip3

pip install -r ./requirements.txt

Make sure you open a terminal in the project folder.

We’re set! The next topic is about setting up your Firebase database. (You’re only a few steps away from having a working website 😁)
