Welcome to the fast track to getting DeployDroid up and running on your machine! ๐Ÿš€ This guide assumes you have a basic understanding of Python and Django. If you're new to Django, no worries! It's a friendly framework for beginners and there are plenty of resources out there to get you started.

#### Prerequisites

Before we dive in, make sure you've got the following ready:

- Python (3.8 or later)

First things first, grab the code:

Let's set up the database:

```bash
python manage.py makemigrations
python manage.py migrate
```

#### Step 5: Run the Server

You're almost there! Start the Django development server:

```bash
python manage.py runserver
```
