## Getting started
Before we do anything else we'll create a new virtual environment, using [virtualenv]. This will make sure our package configuration is keep nicely isolated from any other projects we're working on.
mkdir -p ~/.env
virtualenv --no-site-packages ~/.env/djangorestframework
source ~/.env/djangorestframework/env/bin/activate
Now that we're inside a virtualenv environment, we can install our packages requirements.
pip install django
pip install djangorestframework

django-admin.py startproject tutorial
