Before installing Hindsight, you need to have Python installed on your computer. You can download the latest version of Python from https://www.python.org/downloads/. Make sure to select the correct version for your operating system.
Step 2: Install Git
Next, you need to install Git on your computer. Git is a version control system that is used to manage the Hindsight repository. You can download Git from https://git-scm.com/downloads.
Step 3: Clone the Hindsight repository
Open Git Bash and enter the following command to clone the Hindsight repository:
git clone https://github.com/mozilla-services/hindsight.git
This will create a local copy of the Hindsight repository on your computer.
Step 4: Install Hindsight dependencies
Navigate to the Hindsight folder in the Git Bash console:
cd hindsight
Now install Hindsight dependencies using the following command:
pip install -r requirements.txt
This will download and install all the necessary packages required to run Hindsight.
Step 5: Verify Installation
Once all the dependencies are installed, you can verify the Hindsight installation by running the following command in the Git Bash console:
