Add Trigger.dev to my project.

- Before each step, briefly explain what it does
- Keep me on track until I've successfully triggered my first task
- Show me the results when we're done

You can either: - Use the [Trigger.dev Cloud](https://cloud.trigger.dev). - Or [self-host](/open-source-self-hosting) the service. Once you've created an account, follow the steps in the app to: 1. Complete your account details. 2. Create your first Organization and Project.
