I had problems installing this project even following the instructions

I needed to install two operating system packages. Python3.6-dev and Pandoc via apt-get. I Use Ubunto OS.

I think this information can be add in readme or guidelines.

I am curious why do we need python3.6-dev should not be a requirement, I need to find which requirement is needing this

My scenario was Ubuntu without python 3.6. Then I installed python 3.6 and I followed the steps:

git clone https://github.com/rochacbruno/quokka cd quokka python3 -m venv venv . venv/bin/activate make install make adduser make devserver

I tested in Ubuntu 16.04 and 17.04 (64Bits) all the two asked to install Pandoc via apt-get

python3.6-dev is a requirement because of regex. It needs to compile some C code which has a #include <Python.h>

Is pandoc really needed? Because on Gentoo (and i asume other platforms as well) it pulls in the whole haskel toolchain, which makes Quokka quite heavy.
