+# Development Environment
+
+We will be utilizing a virtual environment to develop the project. This will allow us to have a consistent development environment across all developers.In this case we will be using `venv` to create the virtual environment.
+
+## Getting Started
+
+* Have [Python](https://www.python.org/downloads/) installed
+  * Verify that python is installed by running `python --version`
+* Pip install the virtual environment package
+  * Verify that pip is installed by running `pip --version`
+  * Install the virtual environment package by running `pip install virtualenv`
+* In the root of the project, create a virtual environment by running `python -m venv .venv`
+* Activate the virtual environment
+  * On Windows, run `.venv\Scripts\activate`
+  * On Mac/Linux, run `source .venv/bin/activate`
+* Done! You should now have a fully functional development environment
+* To deactivate the virtual environment, run `deactivate`
+
+## Dependencies
+Once you have entered venv you need to make sure the dependencies are installed by running `pip install -r requirements.txt`.
+If you use a new pip dependency, make sure to add it to the `requirements.txt` file. This can be done by running:
+```bash
+pip freeze > requirements.txt
+``` 
+after you pip installed it locally, and then committing the changes.
