+```sh
+# Clone the repository
+git clone https://github.com/Create-Node-App/create-node-app.git
+
+# Move into the directory
+cd create-node-app
+
+# Setup your local environment
+fnm use
+npm install
+
+# Build the CLI
+npm run build -- --filter create-awesome-node-app
+
+# Create a new project
+./packages/create-awesome-node-app/index.js my-app
