Before you get started, you might want to download pnpm if you haven’t already. This project has not been tested with NPM or Yarn.

First, install dependencies:

pnpm install

cp .env.example .env

You’ll want to generate random, 32-character strings for both the SESSION_SECRET and JWT_SECRET variables. You can use this tool to generate those values.
