Download and install a Drupal 8 based website. Be careful as the final stable version of Drupal 8.0 is not out yet. However, your help in testing might help us reach that goal faster! Make sure to document any issues you find in the process.  After your site is setup, create a basic blog. The first blog should be Hello World talking about the GCI program and this specific task. If you need funding to purchase a domain, contact mentor.

Bonus if you start blogging and submit the blog to be posted on Drupal Planet.
