git clone https://github.com/samuelayo/pusher_django_photo_feed.git

• Replace the XXX_APP_ID, XXX_APP_KEY, XXX_APP_SECRET and XXX_APP_CLUSTER with your own keys you obtained when you created an app on Pusher in the line below in your photofeed\views.py file. If you dont have a Pusher account, sign up here

Pusher(app_id=u'XXX_APP_ID', key=u'XXX_APP_KEY', secret=u'XXX_APP_SECRET', cluster=u'XXX_APP_CLUSTER')
