Make sure you have the latest packages installed
npm install
bower install
Note: If you don't have npm installed, make sure you have
node installed. If you don't have bower,
npm install -g bower.
The above steps will download all the required software to build and run this app, such as grunt, requirejs, and jquery.
You can run your app using grunt serve. This will start a
server on http://localhost:9000 and open a browser to this location.
Any modification on the html, css, scss or javascript will be detected and the page on the browser will be reloaded automatically
If you'd like to run the compiled version (without reloading), run
grunt serve:dist.
This application uses requirejs to load the various modules in the app folder. However, upon build, all of these files are concatenated and minified together to create a small, compressed javascript file.
Running grunt by itself will run through all of the steps of
linting the javascript, building out dependencies and ultimately
creating all the files in the folder /dist/.
There's just enough to in place to get you going. Go ahead
and make your changes to index.html. You'll start your
javascript work in app/assets/js/main.js by requiring your first
modules. Past that, well, the world is your oyster.
TODO
Assuming you're already ran npm install and bower install,
the only pieces required to run the application in its built
state is running grunt and copy the files in dist in the
correct location.
