Click the "Code" button, then select "Download ZIP" to download the repository.
Extract the downloaded ZIP file to a folder on your computer.
Navigate to the extracted folder in the terminal by using the cd command. For example, if you extracted the folder to your Downloads folder, run the following command:
cd ~/Downloads/quakejs-master
Run the following command to install the required Node.js modules:
