Getting Started

Core Dependencies

Project Comport is a Flask app. It uses Postgres for a database. Big thanks to the cookiecutter-flask for a great kickstart.

It is highly recommended that you use use virtualenv (and virtualenvwrapper for convenience). For a how-to on getting set up, please consult this how-to and make sure that you create a python3 virtual env. It is recommended that you use postgres.app to handle your Postgres (assuming you are developing on OSX).
