This is the ery first thing aperson downloading your product for the first time does. And it doesn
't work. Looking att he more detailed installtion page, that says Python 2.7 is required.
Your Web UI is mangledI am typing this two lines below where the test is showing.
This report is timely. New versions of these instructions are going up in a couple days.
Regarding the bug editing text in the issue tracker, that is.. very bad. What browser/device are you using? I need to reproduce that.

(Plenty of corporate security and spyware)I had just pasted from PuTTY (a miserable UX) to the bug report. So there may have been line feeds without carriage returns in there. (As you can tell, I am not a fan of the Linux/Python environment. But I am trying.)
Could be. I'm using Chrome as well, but we're also currently using an old version of the text editor component here, and it's due for an upgrade.
We should be deploying the new instructions (which are all backed by automated Docker-based tests) next week. In the meantime, if we can help you get going, go ahead and e-mail us at support@beanbaginc.com and we'll help get you going.
