To get the most out of this book
You will need Python 3.6 or newer installed on your computer. The code for the book was tested on Python 3.8.x, but any version above 3.6 should work fine. The book isn't OS-specific, as all of the code will work independently of the OS. Still, keep in mind that most of the code was initially run on macOS.
You don't need any premium or licensed software to follow along with this book. Every library is entirely open source.
If you are using the digital version of this book, we advise you to type the code yourself or access the code via the GitHub repository (link available in the next section). Doing so will help you avoid any potential errors related to the copying and pasting of code.
