Development

Environment

The W3 NG site is purely a client-side angular HTML interface. There are PHP server-side scripts as these are only needed to allow CORS (http://www.w3.org/TR/cors/). Finally a PhantomJS runner is needed to generate static HTML pages, so this requires NodeJS.

For development you will need:

• computer running *nix OS
• NodeJS + NPM installed
• Bower installed
• Grunt-CLI (Grunt) installed
• Apache installed

Getting Started

To get the site running locally for developmnent:

• install NodeJS and NPM
• install Bower (http://bower.io/#install-bower)
• install Grunt-CLI (http://gruntjs.com/getting-started)
• git clone https://github.com/SolidStateDepot/ssd-w3-ng.git
• npm --verbose install
• grunt --verbose build
• configure Apache to serve [ssd-w3-ng]/dist
• load site in standards-compliant browser
