Installation of mkdocs

brew install python # if you don't have pip already
[sudo] pip install -r requirements.txt

Adding a Python dependency

Likely, to add a Markdown extension.

1. Install with pip install <some extension>
2. Add to requirements-to-freeze.txt.
3. Run pip freeze > requirements.txt to update the exact requirements.

Why requirements-to-freeze.txt?

Based on A Better Pip Workflow, requirements-to-freeze.txt and requirements.txt provide a similar experience to Gemfile and Gemfile.lock, respectively.

requirements-to-freeze.txt lets you pick out the top level packages the project depends on, while requirements.txt exactly specifies all of the dependencies and subdependencies for repeatable builds.
