To set up backend:

1. Navigate to /flask/
2. Install virtualenv by running pip install virtualenv
3. Run virtualenv -p python3.8.13 virtual. This will create your virtual environment.
4. Run source virtual/bin/activate (UNIX), or virtual\Scripts\Activate.ps1 (Windows Powershell). This will put you inside the virtual environment. You know it works when it says (virtual) at the start of your command line.
5. Run pip install -r requirements.txt. This will install all the python packages.
6. Test by running main.py from the /flask/gen/ directory (run python gen/main.py).
