In order to set up Python on your own machine, I recommend using Anaconda. Follow the steps outlined in my YouTube instruction video to install Python and getting started with the Jupyter notebooks.
If you are more advanced and/or Anaconda is already set up on your machine, you can create a new environment with the necessary libraries through
conda env create -f environment.yml
activate the environment via
conda activate pythonCC
and start Jupyter lab with
jupyter lab
