Manage Packages with npm needs update?

I’m on the lesson to manage packages with npm (https://www.freecodecamp.org/challenges/manage-packages-with-npm) and it says to link my Git to Cloud 9. I cannot seem to find an option to use my Git account for Cloud 9 and Cloud 9 wants my credit card info to create an account. Am I missing something or can I only sign up now using my credit card (which I’m not willing to do)?

Thanks in advance for any help.

The official FCC recommendation is changing from Cloud9 to Glitch. There are a number of other options available. If you search for variations of “cloud9” and “c9.io” in the forum, you will find some very helpful discussions about different tools used by campers.

Thank you for the swift response!
