Install the database. The app requires PostgreSQL and PostGIS. This guide describes how to get PostgreSQL running on your computer.

When you have PostgreSQL installed, you need to create a database for the data to go. Use the psql command to connect to your PostgreSQL instance:
```
$ psql
psql (9.6.1, server 9.5.4)
Type "help" for help.

iandees=#
```
Create the database and add the PostGIS extension:
```
iandees=# create database carpools;
CREATE DATABASE
iandees=# \connect carpools
psql (9.6.1, server 9.5.4)
You are now connected to database "carpools" as user "iandees".
carpools=# create extension postgis;
CREATE EXTENSION
carpools=# \quit
```
Install the Python dependencies.
```
pip install -r requirements.txt
```

Set up the Flask framework configuration

export FLASK_APP=wsgi.py
export FLASK_DEBUG=1

```

```

```
