Change the working directory to Sherlock

cd sherlock

Install the requirements

python3 pip install -r requirements.txt

Run Sherlock python script (see further below for more examples):

python3 sherlock johndoe

Verified as a working install method on MacOS Big Sur.

If you have an error like "venom 431 requires asyncio==3.4.3, which is not installed", continue on.  This most likely means you installed another program before Sherlock, which uses newer dependencies.
