Do you have the needed Libraries(Modules in Python slang) installed? Take a look here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1449494/how-do-i-install-python-packages-on-windows?answertab=active#tab-top — Gewure, Feb 01 '16 at 23:26
I don't know how to run it, but maybe future people will if you submit an issue on the repository. Tell him that the execution instructions are not clear. — zondo, Feb 01 '16 at 23:27
@Gewure, the title of the question says that it is linux. Your link is to a question about windows. — zondo, Feb 01 '16 at 23:29
@zondo i told him but he didnt answered me and i really need this — Amir Bijani, Feb 01 '16 at 23:34

You should be able to run the webapp with

cd webapp
python manage.py run_in_debug

But you might experience more problems. The developer seems to be a newcomer to releasing Python code. The project is packaged in an unusual way. Most likely you will have to install dependencies to get it running.

pip install -r req

would be helpful, that requires pip on your system. It might be installed with package manager of the OS.
