<h2 id="introduction">Introduction</h2>
<p>This tutorial will walk you through the building blocks that make up REST framework. It'll take a little while to get through, but it'll give you a comprehensive understanding of how everything fits together.</p>
<h2 id="setting-up-a-new-environment">Setting up a new environment</h2>
<p>Before we do anything else we'll create a new virtual environment, using <a href="http://www.virtualenv.org/en/latest/index.html">virtualenv</a>. This will make sure our package configuration is keep nicely isolated from any other projects we're working on.</p>
<pre><code>mkdir ~/env
virtualenv --no-site-packages ~/env/djangorestframework
source ~/env/djangorestframework/bin/activate
</code></pre>
<p>Now that we're inside a virtualenv environment, we can install our package requirements.</p>
<pre><code>pip install django
pip install djangorestframework
</code></pre>
<p><strong>*Note:</strong> To exit the virtualenv environment at any time, just type <code>deactivate</code>. For more information see the <a href="http://www.virtualenv.org/en/latest/index.html">virtualenv documentation</a>.*</p>

<p>Okay, we're ready to get coding.
To get started, let's create a new project to work with.</p>
