Developer-setup.md

-## Prerequisites
-
-Before starting, install the following tools:
-
-- Python 3.8 or later
-- Pip package manager
-
-For more information on these tools, see the public documentation on
-[Python](https://www.python.org/downloads/) or
-[Pip](https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/installing/)
-
-Development can be done on Windows, macOS, and Linux.
-
-## Installation
-
-From the root of your cloned repo, generate a virtual environment with a
-specific version of python.
-
-Windows
-```bash
-python -m venv .env
-.env\Scripts\activate.bat
-```
-
-Linux / MacOS
-```bash
-python3 -m venv .env
-. ./.env/bin/activate
-```
-
-(Optional) If you want to be able to make changes to the osdu-sdk that is used for communication with the OSDU API's then this should also be installed in developer mode. If you omit this step then you will use the published version of the sdk referenced in setup.py
-
-```bash
-pip install -e ..\osdu-sdk-python
-pip install -r requirements-dev.txt
-```
-
-Next install the main cli package in developer mode along with any necessary development packages.
-
-```bash
-pip install -e .
-pip install -r requirements-dev.txt
-```
-
-You should now be able to run the command line.
-
-```bash
-osdu
-```
-
-## Validation
-
-You can run local validation including testing and linting using the provided scripts.
-
-Windows
-```bash
-scripts\verify.bat
-```
-
-Linux / MacOS
-```bash
-./scripts/verify
-```
-
-The above can take the following optional arguments to just run specific portions of the validation:
-* lint
-* tests 
-* format
-
-e.g. 
-```bash
-./scripts/verify lint
-```
-
-To run a more fuller validation across all supported python versions run tox.
-```bash
-tox
-```
-
-If needed, configure the paths to the relevant python installations for tox as follows.
-```bash
-set TOX_DISCOVER=C:\Applications\miniconda3\envs\py39\python.exe
-```
-
-## VS Code Extensions
-
-If you are using VS Code, it is recommended you install two extensions
-(`ext install <name>`):
-
-- [python](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=donjayamanne.python)
-- [code-spell-checker](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=streetsidesoftware.code-spell-checker)
-
-Keep the project dictionary up to date by adding exclusions when running spell
-check.
-
-For different virtual environments, it is also important to update the workspace
-Python interpreter. Select an interpreter by running the `Python: Select
-Workspace Interpreter` command.
-
-## Conventions
-
-Before submitting any pull requests for merging, be sure to review the
-requirements and suggestions outlined in the [[coding conventions|Conventions]] documentation.
