Tutorial: Installing MokinToken on POP! OS Latest

MokinToken is an ERC-20 token built on the Ethereum blockchain. It is a governance token used to vote on the development and management of the Mokin network. In this tutorial, we will show you how to download and install MokinToken on your POP! OS Latest machine.

Prerequisites

Before we proceed with the installation process, make sure you have the following:

• A computer running POP! OS Latest
• Web3-enabled browser extension (MetaMask, for example)
• Access to the command line

Installation

1. Open your web browser and navigate to the MokinToken Github repository.

2. Once you are on the repository page, locate the green button labeled "Code" and click on it. From the dropdown menu that appears, select "Download ZIP." This will download the repository to your computer.

3. Next, unzip the downloaded file and open the folder containing the MokinToken files.

4. On your POP! OS machine, open the terminal and navigate to the folder containing the MokinToken files using the cd command. For example:

cd ~/Downloads/mokintoken-main/

This command assumes that you have extracted the MokinToken files in the Downloads folder.

5. Now, we need to install the necessary dependencies. Type the following command and hit Enter:

npm install

This command will install all the required dependencies for MokinToken to function properly.

6. Once the dependencies are installed, we need to compile the smart contract. Type the following command and hit Enter:

truffle compile

This command will compile the smart contracts in the "contracts" folder.

7. After the compilation is complete, we need to deploy the smart contract on the Ethereum network. Make sure you have sufficient funds in your Ethereum wallet to cover the gas costs of the deployment. Type the following command and hit Enter:

truffle migrate --network <network-name>

Replace <network-name> with the name of the network you want to deploy the smart contract on. For example, if you want to deploy the smart contract on the Ropsten test network, you would use the following command:

truffle migrate --network ropsten

8. After the deployment is complete, you will see the smart contract address in the terminal. This is the address of the MokinToken contract on the Ethereum network.

9. To interact with the MokinToken smart contract, we need to import the contract ABI into our project. Navigate to the "build/contracts" folder and locate the "MokinToken.json" file.

10. Copy the contents of the "MokinToken.json" file and paste it into the "abi.js" file in the project directory.

11. Once the ABI is imported, we can now use the MokinToken smart contract in our project. Use the following command to start the project:

npm start

This will start the project and you can now use the MokinToken smart contract to vote on the development and management of the Mokin network.

Congratulations! You have successfully installed MokinToken on your POP! OS Latest machine.
