If you wish to build and run the code from source, here's what you'll need:

Prerequisites

Install Grunt and Bower: npm install -g grunt-cli bower

Install all local modules: npm install

Install all external dependencies: bower install

Running development server

grunt serve

The task will first perform all required pre-processing, enable watch, live-reload, jshint and karma, and then open the browser. If you don't want any of this fancy stuff, you can just run npm start

Building production-ready application

grunt build

This task will optimize and minimize all the assets and prepare the code for deployment (e.g. to npm registry). You can run the production version locally by using grunt serve:dist

Unit tests

grunt test

This task will start Karma test runner and report the results.

JSHint

grunt jshint

This task will run code analysis and report the results.
