Development Instructions

  1. Fork and clone Esri Leaflet Geocoder
  2. cd into the esri-leaflet-geocoder folder and install the dependencies with npm install
  3. Run npm start from the command line. This will compile minified source in a brand new dist directory, launch a tiny webserver and begin watching the raw source for changes.
  4. The example at debug/sample.html should 'just work'
  5. Make your changes and create a pull request
