1. Create a virtual environment by using the following command:

   • for windows

     python -m venv env
     

   • for mac

     python3 -m venv env
     

2. Next you need to activate the virtual environment as:

   • for windows

     env\Scripts\activate
     

   • for mac

     source env/bin/activate
     

3. Clone the repository using the following command:

   git clone https://github.com/tkarotra/CrimeReportingSystem.git
   

4. We now need to move into our project folder. Do this by running the following command:

   cd CrimeReportingSystem
   

5. Now we need to install all the dependencies of the project. This can be done using the following command:

   pip install -r requirements.txt
   

6. Next you need to run the following command to setup our database:

   python manage.py makemigrations
   

   or

   python manage.py makemigrations app
   

7. Then we simply need to apply these migrations by running:

   python manage.py migrate
   

8. Next we need to create a super user to acess the database and all its tables:

   python manage.py createsuperuser
   

9. Now finally to run the development server as follows:

   python manage.py runserver
   

Now you have setup the project successfully!!
