Use the following steps to set up your local environment for developing and deploying your App Engine services:
1. Install the latest release of Python 3. See [Python 3 runtime environment](https://docs.cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/standard/python3/runtime) for a list of the supported versions. 2. Install and initialize the [gcloud CLI](https://docs.cloud.google.com/sdk/docs/install) for deploying and managing your apps. If you already have the gcloud CLI installed and initialized, run the [`gcloud components update`](https://docs.cloud.google.com/sdk/gcloud/reference/components/update) command to update to the latest release. By downloading, you agree to be bound by the [Terms](https://cloud.google.com/terms) that govern use of the gcloud CLI for App Engine. **Optional tools**: - [Install Git](https://git-scm.com/download/) for access to code, samples, libraries, and tools in the [Google Cloud GitHub](https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform) repository. - Install your preferred tooling or framework, for example you can use any of the following frameworks to develop your Python 3 app: - [Flask](http://flask.pocoo.org/) - [Django](https://www.djangoproject.com) - [Pyramid](http://www.pylonsproject.org/) - [Bottle](http://bottlepy.org/) - [web.py](http://webpy.org/) - [Tornado](http://www.tornadoweb.org/)
