If you don't already have an account with Clerk you can easily set one up with just a few steps here. Once your account is created you should be prompted to create a new application, you will need to add a name for your new app and can keep the pre-selected settings under 'Standard Authentication' and 'Connected Accounts'. You will then be sent to the Application dashboard, which you will need to go back to when deploying your new site.

Install all dependencies & the Netlify CLI:
```
npm install
npm install netlify-cli -g
```
Create or connect to your Netlify project by running through the Netlify init script. This will walk you through the process of setting up and deploying your site on Netlify:
```
netlify init
```
For the Environment variables the API and JWT keys will be located under Developers > API Keys within the Clerk dashboard. Add your Clerk environment variables to a .env file like .env.local.sample file or through the Netlify project dashboard at https://app.netlify.com/ Site settings/Build & deploy/Environment:
```
NEXT_PUBLIC_CLERK_FRONTEND_API="" 
CLERK_API_KEY=""
CLERK_JWT_KEY=""
```
🚨 Once you've added in the environment variables, you will need to go to the 'Deploy' tab within your Netlify Dashboard and trigger a new deploy.
Start dev server (This starts your app in development mode, rebuilding assets on file changes.):
```
npm run dev
or
netlify dev
```

Your new site should now be up and running!
