Clone the api template project and configure it

git clone https://github.com/plugblockchain/api-template.git
cd api-template
yarn install

Run your built node (see previous step if you haven't built a node yet)

../../target/debug/awesome-node --chain=dev --base-path=/tmp/awesome-test --validator --alice

Run the default script:

node index.js
