Developing

npm, the package manager for Node.js, is used to manage the project's dependencies. Grunt, a JavaScript task runner, is used to test and build the project.

Initial Setup

• Download or clone this repository locally
• Ensure Node.js, which includes npm, is installed
• Ensure Grunt is installed:

npm install -g grunt-cli

• Navigate to the root of your local copy of this project and install the dependencies:

npm install

Grunt Tasks

The following Grunt tasks, found in Gruntfile.js, can be run from the command line. The most commonly used tasks to build and develop the project are:

• grunt - start a watcher which will automatically generate the project's JavaScript and CSS files in the dist directory (at the root of the project) and run unit tests when files change.
• grunt visualTests:serve - start a watcher which will automatically generate the visual tests and serve them at http://localhost:9000/ when files change.
• grunt site:serve - start a watcher which will automatically generate the website and serve it at http://localhost:8000/ when files change.
• grunt ci - the full build run by the CI server

Visual Tests

The project includes a number of unit tests, however, because these components are visual in nature, unit testing is not enough. This project contains a number of ad-hoc visual tests that are found within the visual-tests folder. To view this site, run grunt visualTests:serve.
