### Step #1: Clone the Github repository on your computer <a href="#step-1-clone-the-github-repository-on-your-computer" id="step-1-clone-the-github-repository-on-your-computer"></a>

By opening your Command Line Interface, you can run the following commands to, first, clone the repository, then go inside the newly copied folder:

```
1 git clone https://github.com/tornadocashdev/ui-minified.git
2 cd ui-minified
```

### Step #2: Serve the Folder with Your Favorite HTTP Server <a href="#step-2-serve-the-folder-with-your-favorite-http-server" id="step-2-serve-the-folder-with-your-favorite-http-server"></a>

```
1 python -m SimpleHTTPServer 8080
```

You can obviously use any other http web server, such as[ npmjs.com/package/http-server](https://www.npmjs.com/package/http-server).

### Step #3: Run the UI on Localhost on your Favorite Web Browser <a href="#step-3-run-the-ui-on-localhost-on-your-favorite-web-browser" id="step-3-run-the-ui-on-localhost-on-your-favorite-web-browser"></a>

To finish, you just need to run <http://localhost:8080> on your Web Browser & let the magic happens 🪄
