Department of Energy Catalyst for Solar Energy IdeaScale projects

Catalyst

Initiated by Kevin Cole ([e-mail]) 2014.05.31

This is a Django 1.6 project, using Python 3, initiated at the National Day of Civic Hacking. See: http://ndoch.codefornova.org/

Specifically, I'm hoping to focus on something for the Department of Energy's Catalyst initiative with a focus on Solar stuff, after chatting a bit with Ammar Qusaibaty, (CONTR) ([e-mail]). See:

Although we're using Django 1.6 at the moment, we may change to a local instance of Django 1.7. See Jeff's Django 1.7 / Python 3 pages:

• http://www.openbookproject.net/books/bpp4awd/app_a.html

regarding a user-centric installation of Django 1.7.

Begin with:

$ cd ~/
$ django-admin startproject catalyst
$ cd catalyst
$ python3 manage.py runserver
