follow all the way through step 3.

sudo apt install python3-virtualenv
sudo apt install python3-venv
git clone https://git.cypherstack.com/marco/epicpost.git
cd epicpost
python3 -m venv yourvirtualenviornment
source yourvirtualenviornment/bin/activate

pip3 install wheel
pip3 install -r requirements.txt
CC="cc -mavx2" pip3 install -U --force-reinstall pillow-simd

- change settings.py accordingly
```
eg change the psql_pass to your database password, psql_db to your database name

Run the application:
