Getting started: setting up environment (mac)

Watch the overview video for this book here.

Note that these are the instructions for Mac computers; you may need some custom setup for FFmpeg and/or SoX if you're using a Windows and/or Linux computer.

First, clone the repository and submodules:

git clone --recurse-submodules -j8 https://github.com/jim-schwoebel/voicebook

Now you need to run the setup.py script in a virtual environment to make sure you have all the required dependencies for all the chapters of the book. To do this, run:

cd voicebook
pip3 install virtualenv
virtualenv env 
source env/bin/activate
python3 setup.py

Now you have all the dependencies necessary to follow along with the chapters in the book. You don’t need to worry about any other installations.
