# Use the demo store custom application

The Digital River Demo Store custom application contains a React application that provides an example of how you might use the Digital River connector to integrate Digital River into a commercetools store. 

The application is intended for demonstration and reference only and is NOT production ready.

Contact your Digital River representative to obtain the demo store application code. If you do not have a Digital River representative contact <commercetools-Integration@digitalriver.com>

## Setup the demo store

Use the following steps to set up your demo store:

* Follow the steps in[ Install and configure the commercetools connector](/commercetools-1/install-and-configure-the-digital-river-commercetools-integration.md) to set up your store.
* Populate your project with the [commercetools Sunrise data](https://github.com/commercetools/commercetools-sunrise-data). Follow the [provided README](https://github.com/commercetools/commercetools-sunrise-data#readme) to understand how to create a project with Sunrise.&#x20;
* Create an `.ENV` file with the following environmental variable values:
