## How to set up your development environment
We use [tox](https://tox.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) to standardize environments across developers and CI. So first install tox (globally, probably) and then in your Tahoe-LAFS working copy run `tox -e py36 --notest` to bootstrap the `py36` virtualenv. Then activate the environment with `source .tox/py36/bin/activate` or equivalent and run `trial allmydata.test.test_python3` as a smoke test.

TBD, something involving core abstractions first, then dependency graph topological traversal.
