Windows Users: Make sure to install the Windows Subsystem for Linux. See this official guide from Microsoft for further instructions.

1. Install the Required Software

Make sure to have a recent version of Node, Yarn and Git installed on your machine. If you're using macOS you can install these packages using Homebrew. On Linux (and Windows, using the Linux subsystem) you can use apt-get (or the corresponding package manager for your distro).
