+Python3 also won't recognize MySQLdb as a module. After the above installs (which you would do pre-Poetry), add these lines to __init__.py in the backend project:

+On a Mac, port 7000 (used by the app) might be hijacked by Airplay. See the Docker section below.

+Note: For those who upgraded to MacOS 12.1 and are running everything locally, your AirPlay receiver may have started on Port 7000 and your docker (or anything requesting port 7000) may fail due to this port already being used.
