  2. Clone the forked repository in the parent directory of the previously setup supertokens-root. That is, supertokens-website and supertokens-root should exist side by side within the same parent directory.
  3. cd supertokens-website
  4. Install the project dependencies
    npm i -d
    
  5. Add git pre-commit hooks
    npm run set-up-hooks

    npm run build-pretty
    

Testing

  1. Navigate to the supertokens-root repository

  2. Start the testing environment
