That's about it. If something is stupid or confusing, FILE A FUCKING ISSUE so that it can get fixed.
First, clone the repository, and set the name of the remote to upstream. This will become useful
when you fork the repository to contribute changes.
$ git clone https://github.com/desert-planet/ayp
$ cd ayp
$ git remote rename origin upstreamNow use npm, which should have been installed with node, to install the application and all of its dependencies.
$ npm installIf nothing goes wrong, you can then load the local database with some test strips after loading the dev environment.
$ . script/ayp-env
$ script/db-seed
=> I'm gonna stuff your DB with some content.
[..snip..]Now you're GOOD TO GO. To run the development server
$ npm start
Your pants running at http://localhost:5000/Code changes to .coffee files require a restart of the server. Because I'm bad at programming
If you have already created a fork, you can add that remote as origin
$ git remote add origin https://github.com/your_name_here/aypSo that newly created branches will push to your fork, but switching to master and running
git pull will get the latest changes from the upstream repository.
