Find an image that is as close as possible to a perfect top-down angle.
- You can make it perfectly top-down/rectangular using GIMP perspective tool.
White background is preferred for best cutout quality, but if not available just cut them out best as possible
Isolate the pedal on a transparent background (do not cut off jacks or switches). In GIMP (2.10), open file, select magic wand tool and click background, Layer > Transparency > Add Alpha Channel, then Layer > Transparency > Color to Alpha, and finally Ok in the dialog prompt. You can also use https://onlinepngtools.com/create-transparent-png
Crop the image to non-transparent pixels (in Photoshop Image > Trim > Transparent Pixels, in Gimp Image -> Crop to Content)
Save to two places with the following guidelines:
- /app/images/pedals - Save for Web as PNG-24, make width 800px or less (don't enlarge original image though)
- /public/images/pedals - Save for web as PNG-24, make width 350px or less
- Please make sure file names use all lower-case letters and no spaces

Add the dimensions of the pedals you add to /public/data/pedals.json
Input dimensions in inches, with decimals (rounding to nearest hundredth)
Dimensions recorded should include jacks and switches (if possible, most placed don't specify wether or not measurements do or do not)

Install node v10, bower, and gulp
Install dependencies via npm install
Install client-side libraries via bower install
Compile assets and watch for changes via gulp
Start the local server via npm run serve. This will open a browser tab for you at localhost:8080.
