Before you can start working on the Firebase JS SDK, you need to have Node.js
6.11.5 or greater installed on your machine.
To download Node.js visit https://nodejs.org/en/download/.
NOTE: You can use a tool like NVM
or N to install and manage multiple node versions
In addition to Node.js we use yarn to facilitate multi package development.
To install yarn follow the instructions listed on their website:

The LIMS JS SDK is built with a series of individual packages that are all contained in this repository. Development is coordinated via yarn workspaces and Lerna (a monorepo management tool).
Each package in the packages directory, constitute a piece of our
implementation. The SDK is built via a combination of all of these packages
which are published under the lims.io
scope on NPM.
Each package in the packages directory exposes a dev script. This script
will set up a watcher for development on the individual piece of the SDK. In
addition, there is a top level dev script that can be run to start all of the
watch tasks as well as a sandbox server.
You can run the dev script by running the following at the root of the package:
yarn dev
