Development

• this is a Yeoman generator
• the business logic is in src/app/index.ls, which gets compiled into generators/app/index.js
• the tests are in features and are run with spec
• run build after you make changes to the source code for them to reflect in the tests and the NPM package
• run watch during development for automatic building
• to update dependencies, run update

Running the generator locally

• in the folder of your generator sourc code (i.e. this folder), run npm link
• this installs a copy of the current source code as a global NPM module
• run yo to run the generator
• each time you make changes to the source you have to run npm link

Deployment

• update the dependencies: update
• bump the version: npm version (patch|minor|major)
