Installing Copay Wallet

Required software

You need to have a code editor, node.js and git installed on your system. If you already have these installed you can skip this step.

• Code Editor - I recommend Visual Studio Code
• Node.js - Download from official website, use the LTS version
• Git - Follow these steps to install Git and configure git.

Clone Code

You need to clone Copay code into your system. I usually create a folder called: “Code” under my user folder and clone all projects into that folder.

Open the terminal and run the following commands:

cd ~ && mkdir Code && cd Code
git clone https://github.com/bitpay/copay.git

For example on my system I cloned the code to: /Users/ran/Code/copay

Install deps

To run the app we first need to install the app dependencies. Open terminal in the app folder and run: npm install
