<h3><a class="title-link" name="starting-development" href="#starting-development"></a> Starting development</h3>
<p>You will need to set up a development environment if you want to start developing a new feature or component for Home Assistant. Please follow these steps to get setup.<br />
Visit the <a href="https://github.com/home-assistant/home-assistant">the Home Assistant repository</a> first and click fork in the top right.</p>
<p>We suggest that you setup a <a href="https://docs.python.org/3.4/library/venv.html">virtual environment</a> aka <code>venv</code> before running the setup script.</p>
<div class="highlighter-coderay"><div class="CodeRay">
<div class="code"><pre>$ git clone https://github.com/YOUR_GIT_USERNAME/home-assistant.git
$ cd home-assistant
$ git remote add upstream https://github.com/home-assistant/home-assistant.git
$ script/setup
</pre></div>
</div>
</div>
<p>Testing your work requires <code>tox</code> to be installed:</p>
<div class="highlighter-coderay"><div class="CodeRay">
<div class="code"><pre>$ pip3 install tox
</pre></div>
</div>
</div>
<p>After following these steps, running <code>hass</code> will invoke your local installation.</p>
