To connect to Slack, the app uses a legacy Slack API token. This can be found at https://api.slack.com/custom-integrations/legacy-tokens and must be added to your environment variables. To do this, copy it and run the command $ export SLACK_TOKEN='[your token here]' (or add it to your environment variables in an equivalent fashion). Run the app with $ node main.js.
