This script automates the steps of the following guide https://medium.com/avalabs/how-to-join-avalanche-everest-release-a40cd20aa654

Check our previous script for DENALI TESTNET on: https://medium.com/@ablock.io/guide-launch-your-denali-node-with-aws-from-a-to-z-4a13ebac1466

1. Connect to your VPS
2. launch the following command

3. Once done, go to the cloned repository
4. Update config.json file with your username and password (or keep it as it is as we are still on testnet)
5. launch nodejs installation script
