How to Set Up the BackEnd/FrontEnd (BEFE)

We’ve deployed a remote BEFE to simplify getting started. It’s a replica of the local setup you can download and install later when ready to customize your project.

The remote BEFE is enabled by default in the Unreal project.

In both instances, you will need to create an account. Follow the steps for your preferred method.

Use the Remote BEFE for Quick Start

1. Create an Account

Visit https://projectphoenixclx.com/.
Create an account and connect your wallet.
- Note: Wallet connection is currently read-only and pulls in clones from the wallet.
