Skill Requirements
You should attend if you are a student or professional with at least intermediate general programming skills and has experience in web development (i.e. knows about RESTful APIs and is familiar with any web framework). This workshop is not recommended for new programmers.
Machine Requirements
Participants must bring their own laptops. Development will be done in a Linux environment and must have Python (v2.7.x++) installed.
Non-Linux users can run Linux in a virtual machine using VirtualBox or VMWare Player. We recommend installing Linux Mint 17.
Sofware Requirements
Before the day arrives, we recommend installing the libraries we will be using into your machines. It would save time and if everyone is ready, we won't have to wait for installation (and downloading) to finish.
First, download Python 2.7.
* https://www.python.org/download/releases/2.7.8
Next, download pip.

Then type in the following in your shell:
> pip install sqlalchemy
> pip install flask
> pip install requests
> pip install django
> pip install djangorestframework
> pip install numpy
> pip install pandas
> pip install bokeh
