Good to hear from you @patriamreminisci. Not to worry on timing. I'm a definite "part-timer" myself.

The two basic components you need for Hive are the link I provided above. Then, since I first wrote, progress has been made, so no need to do anything with GitHub now. My recommendation is you install the Chrome app called Hive Keychain - the Hive equivalent to Steem Keychain.

If not familiar with it, once installed, you are asked to provide your private keys. You only need supply what you are comfortable with, once you have read their description. I trust the develppers of it, so have my Post and Active keys in there.

If you have any more questions, please feel free to ask. I will do what I can to help.
