We assume you have the following installed: * pip * virtualenv * PostgreSQL First make sure to create and activate a virtualenv_, then open a terminal at the project root and install the requirements for local development:: $ pip install -r requirements/local.txt .. _virtualenv: http://docs.python-guide.org/en/latest/dev/virtualenvs/ You can now run the usual Django ``runserver`` command (replace ``yourapp`` with the name of the directory containing the Django project):: $ python yourapp/manage.py runserver The base app will run but you'll need to carry out a few steps to make the sign-up and login forms work. These are currently detailed in `issue #39`_. .. _issue #39: https://github.com/pydanny/cookiecutter-django/issues/39 **Live reloading and Sass CSS compilation** If you'd like to take advantage of live reloading and Sass / Compass CSS compilation you can do so with the included Grunt task. Make sure that nodejs_ is installed. Then in the project root run:: $ npm install grunt .. _nodejs: http://nodejs.org/download/ Now you just need:: $ grunt serve The base app will now run as it would with the usual ``manage.py runserver`` but with live reloading and Sass compilation enabled. To get live reloading to work you'll probably need to install an `appropriate browser extension`_ .. _appropriate browser extension: http://feedback.livereload.com/knowledgebase/articles/86242-how-do-i-install-and-use-the-browser-extensions- It's time to write the code!!!
