If you need installation instructions for how to install and setup Python 3 this way, Lisa Tagliaferri’s instructions are recommended, whether you work on [macOS](https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-python-3-and-set-up-a-local-programming-environment-on-macos), [Ubuntu](https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-python-3-and-set-up-a-programming-environment-on-an-ubuntu-20-04-server) or [Windows 10](https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-python-3-and-set-up-a-local-programming-environment-on-windows-10).\n\n_Windows users:_ If you can, choose the option to set the PATH during installation. But if you need to set the PATH after installation, a helpful resource to help with adding `python` to the PATH on a Windows machine is [“How to add Python to Windows PATH”](https://datatofish.com/add-python-to-windows-path/).\n\n\n### 1. Run the build command:\n\n```sh\n$ bash build.sh\n```\n\n_Note: If you do not have a `bash` command (for instance, you are on a Windows machine), you can also just download the build directory as a `.zip` file from the [`build` branch on this repository](https://github.com/Living-with-machines/machines-interactive/tree/build). Instructions on how to download the entire interactive as one runnable file is available in the `build` branch._\n\n### 2. Run the following command to get a local web server running on port 80:\n\n```sh\n$ python -m http.server 80 --directory build\n```\n\n_Note: If you run into problem with a busy or blocked port, you can change the port (80) to any random number here._\n\n### 3. Navigate to `http://localhost` (or `127.0.0.1`) in your browser.\n\n_Note: If you changed the port above, you will need to follow “localhost” with `:PORT` for whichever port number you chose above, such as localhost:8000._\n\nTo run the kiosk using NodeJS\n---------------\n\nYou can also opt to run the kiosk using NodeJS if you would like. First, make sure you have NodeJS installed. Then, follow these steps:\n\n1. Run the command:\n\n```\n$ bash build.sh\n```\n\n2. Navigate into the `build` folder:\n\n```sh\n$ cd build\n```\n\n3. Run the command:\n\n```\n$ npx http-server --port 80\n```\n\n4. Navigate to [localhost](http://localhost) (or 127.0.0.1) in your browser.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fliving-with-machines%2Fmachines-interactive","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fliving-with-machines%2Fmachines-interactive","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fliving-with-machines%2Fmachines-interactive/lists"}
