What are the steps required to run the project after downloading from github

Most of time is just to get all source code,then can make changes as example be contributor to a open source projects.
This is good video Make Your First Contribution on GitHub

Can look at the a couple examples.
logzero: Python logging made easy so to run this there is no need at all to clone Repo.
Most also has PyPi together with GitHub Repo.
So using it is just pip install logzero
