  3. Run the script to mint your token: 
    cd MintToken
python mint_token.py

📝 Note for Codespaces

If you're testing these scripts on the Algorand Testnet within a Codespace, run the following command after the initial setup to ensure everything is properly configured:

sh algorand_setup.py

This will prepare your environment for minting NFTs and Tokens.
