Technical requirements

Every chapter will have slightly different requirements, but there are some that you will need throughout the book.

You should have access to Python 3.6 or higher, which can be easily downloaded from https://www.python.org, as well as a text editor or an integrated development environment (IDE) so you can edit code.

For this chapter, we will be using Dash, Dash HTML Components, and Dash Bootstrap Components, which can be installed together with all other required packages by following the instructions in the following section. All code and data required for this book can be downloaded from the book's GitHub repository, which can be found at https://github.com/PacktPublishing/Interactive-Dashboards-and-Data-Apps-with-Plotly-and-Dash. As I just mentioned, the following section will show in detail how to get started with your setup.

The code files of this chapter can be found on GitHub at https://github.com/PacktPublishing/Interactive-Dashboards-and-Data-Apps-with-Plotly-and-Dash/tree/master/chapter_01.
