Here, you will choose your login method, which includes two options: GitHub and Guest. For this tutorial, select GitHub login, as later on, the use of the Sandbox requires users to log in with GitHub.

## 2. Configure Wallet

Aptos IDE provides support for Petra Wallet.

### 2.1 Petra Wallet

> &#x20;<https://petra.app/>

## 3. Acquiring test tokens

A faucet is the site/place where you can get test tokens.  Use them to make sure your wallet has enough assets to cover the cost of deployment and pay transaction gas.

Switch to Testnet or Devnet in Petra.
