Lewsnetter is a newsletter bulk email software developed in Python language that can be used to send personal newsletters to a large number of people. This guide is intended to help you install Lewsnetter on your POP! OS Linux distribution.
To clone the repository, open the Terminal application on your POP! OS computer, and run the following command:

The above command will create a new directory called lewsnetter in your current working directory.
To install the dependencies of the Lewsnetter application, navigate to the lewsnetter directory by running the following command:

After the dependencies are installed, you need to configure the Lewsnetter application. Open the config.yml file in your preferred text editor by running the command:
