Next, you need to clone the RecipeSage repository to your local machine. Open the terminal and navigate to the directory where you want to clone the repository. Then, execute the following command:
git clone https://github.com/julianpoy/recipesage.git
After cloning the repository, navigate to the recipesage directory and execute the following command to install the required libraries:
