Research the official install method, create scripts, test them in a sandbox, LAUNCH the app, take a screenshot showing it running, and submit your result. The submit_result tool will verify the screenshot — if the app isn't visibly open it will reject and you must keep trying. Remember to delete the sandbox when done.
