# README

I've included this readme to assist in Flask env setup on Debian machines

Dependencies (install via aptitude):
* `python-flask` [flask.pocoo.org]
* `virtualenv`


In lieu of using conda, we set up our virtual environment manually:

`
$ virtualenv --python=python3 --system-site-packages __mega
$ su
# source mm/bin/activate mm
# python main.py
`

The `virtualenv` command creates a virtual environment locally.
the `--python=` argument specifies which python binary to use.
the `--system-site-packages` argument pulls in local packages (i.e. python-flask)
