Getting Started

This guide will help you prepare your environment and run the program for the first time.

📦 Requirements

Create a new project folder and move into it:
```
mkdir my_project && cd my_project
```
Unzip the provided archive:
```
unzip Narbal.zip
```
Set up your Python environment (see Environment Setup below).

Note: If you already have an existing virtual environment and have installed dependencies, you can skip directly to the activation commands in the Environment Setup section.

Follow the instructions for your operating system to create & activate a virtual environment and install dependencies.

python3 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate
pip install --upgrade pip
pip install -r requirements.txt

py -m venv venv
.\venv\Scripts\activate
py -m pip install --upgrade pip
py -m pip install -r requirements.txt

Once you're done using the program, exit the virtual environment by running:

deactivate
