pip install -e .[dev] fails in zsh

I am working through this excellent tutorial.

At this step, pip install -e .[dev] failed for me on macOS in zsh. Error message: zsh: no matches found: .[dev].

This issue explains the problem, and their suggested solution resolved this for me. Suggested to use pip install -e .'[dev]'

Perhaps this is obvious to more advanced developers, but I thought it would be helpful to future visitors to this tutorial to update this step.

Thank you.

you must use pip install -e .\[dev\] because zsh understands [] different
