Trouble with installation instructions, throwing errors

[shannonjensen]

I followed the instructions in the readme, but npm run develop is throwing errors and failing. Thank you for the help.

Hi Shannon!

Thanks for asking, so the error is that the graphql plugin can't authenticate with Github's GraphQL API.

I think you should just need to follow this step, but let me know if that doesn't work out for you!

Request a Github token and give repo full access to the token
cat .env.sample > .env.development then paste in your access token from gitub

It should end up looking like

GITHUB_API_TOKEN=your-token-here

@shannonjensen gonna be proactive here, fairly certain that's the issue so please re-open if that wasn't the case!
