Development workflow

1. Use git to clone this repo and cd into its folder
2. Install dependancies system-wide using your favorite python package manager. View those like this:

   $ hatch project metadata | jq -r '.dependencies | .[]'

3. Setup a virtual environment for development/testing

   $ python -m venv --without-pip --system-site-packages --clear venv

4. Activate the venv (this step is os/shell-dependant, see 1 for non-linux/bash)

   $ source venv/bin/activate

5. Install the package in editable mode into the venv

   (venv) $ python tools/venv_dev_install.py

6. Develop! When you're finished with it, you can deactivate the virtual environment with deactivate
