1. Clone the Repository

2. Set Up a Virtual Environment

It’s recommended to use a Python virtual environment to isolate dependencies. On Linux/MacOS:

python3 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate

On Windows:

python -m venv venv
venv\Scripts\activate

3. Install Dependencies

With the virtual environment activated, install the required dependencies:

pip install -r requirements.txt

4. Configuration

The app requires configuration files for secrets and other environment-specific settings.

Create the Instance Folder:

mkdir instance

Create config.py in the instance Folder: Example configuration:

SECRET_KEY = 'your-secret-key'
DEBUG = True

The app will automatically use this file for instance-specific configurations.

5. Launch the App

Run the application with the following command:

python run.py

6. Deployment

For production:

Use Gunicorn to run the app:

gunicorn -w 4 -b 0.0.0.0:5187 app:app

Optionally, configure Nginx to act as a reverse proxy for the app.
