Create a Droplet

Before creating a droplet, 🌟 you must ensure that you've already set up an account on DigitalOcean 📝 and signed in (Get 200 USD of credit with this link). 🔒

 

🚀 Time to kick off by creating our first droplet! Simply hit the 'Create' button and in the dropdown, select 'Droplets'. 💻

 

 

🌍 Pick the location nearest your users! 📍

 

🧐 Pick the Ubuntu image 🖼️

 

📚 Since this is a tutorial, we'll opt for the basic plan. 💼

 

Choose the regular plan for just $4 per month! 💼💲

Your authentication method should be PASSWORD 🔒🔑

 

🔒 Enter your password and keep it safe, just in case you forget. 🤐

When it comes to the Hostname, I like to pick a name that's easy to remember 🧠📝

As for me, I renamed mine to kowe 💥🔄

Now 🛠️, we can create our droplet with a simple click on the 'Create Droplet' button.
