CS Team Project - Socially driven wallpaper sharing.
The following need to be installed to get started with developing for PixelGram from a clean install on Windows... Don't give me that look. It's necessary.
- Install Git (https://git-scm.com/downloads)
- Create a folder for the project, navigate to this folder using cd.
- (cmd) git clone https://github.com/JamesBream/PixelGram.git
The best way to learn how to use Git is probably by using this resource https://try.github.io/
- Install Python 3.5.x
- (cmd) pip3 install flask
- (cmd) pip3 install flask-mysqldb
- (cmd) pip3 install pillow
No troubles? Awesome.
- Install MariaDB 10.1.x
- Set root password (For security)
Finally, some utilities... (Yeah, we're getting there, almost I think.)
- Install Adobe Brackets
- Install MySQL Workbench
If everything instaleld, you should be able to do python3 app.py in the terminal to run the server. This can be left running in the background and is set up to automatiaclly detect changes in the .py files so you don't need to restart the server when changes are made.
