+Rophako should run equally well in Python versions 2 and 3, but it's only been deployed in a Python 2 environment.
+
+It's recommended that you set up a virtualenv to set up Rophako.
+
+```bash
+$ mkvirtualenv rophako
+(rophako)$ git clone https://github.com/kirsle/rophako
+(rophako)$ cd rophako/
+(rophako)$ pip install -r requirements.txt
+```
+
+You may need some system libraries installed for some of the Python dependencies to compile correctly.
+
+Fedora:
+
+```bash
+$ sudo yum install libffi-devel libjpeg-devel libpng-devel
+```
+
+If all went well, you should be able to run `python runserver.py` without any errors.
+
+**Next Step:** [[Server Configuration]]
