Preparing Virtual Environment

Virtual environments allow one to easily manage Python packages.

To create virtual environments use the following command: 
pip install virtualenv

Then while in the flask-auth working directory use the following command: 
virtualenv [Environment Name]

The environment name can be whatever you want it to be.

Activating/Deactivating Virtual Environment

Activating/Deactivating your virtual environment varies depending on OS.

Windows Activation/Deactivation:
[Environment Name]\Scripts\activate
[Environment Name]\Scripts\deactivate

Linux Activation/Deactivation: 
source [Environment Name]/bin/activate
source [Environment Name]/bin/deactivate

Final Project Preparation

With the virtual environment activated run the following command:
pip install -r requirements.txt

After that all you need to do is use the following command:
flask run

This spins up your application on localhost:5000 by default.
