After installing the prerequisites, we can now download QuakeJS from GitHub. To do that, we will use the Git command. Enter the following command in the terminal to clone the QuakeJS repository:
git clone https://github.com/begleysm/quakejs.git
After downloading the QuakeJS repository, we need to install its dependencies. Navigate to the downloaded 'quakejs' directory using the terminal and enter the following command to install the dependencies:
