Hello, I am looking to create my own native token on the Cardano blockchain and am having trouble figuring out exactly where to begin.
I understand I must set up a cardano-node on a remote server in order to create and mint my token, however, I am struggling to find documentation on exactly how to do this. Is there any hardware requirements that my server must meet in order to host this node? Will I need to set up two separate nodes (relay & block-producing), or is one of those enough? I did find an online Cardano native token creator which is fairly automated, however I would rather go through the process of using the CLI and interacting with the cardano node directly so I can learn how to fully manage and understand the process.
I apologize if these are naive and beginner questions. I am simply overwhelmed with quite a bit of information as I research this topic on the web. Any answers or pointers for where to begin would be highly appreciated.
