+
+== Requirements ==
+* Node LTS Version 20.17.0+
+* Use a tool such as NVM (Node Version Manager) for your OS to help manage multiple versions of Node
+
+== Node Version Manager tools ==
+* https://github.com/coreybutler/nvm-windows
+* https://github.com/nvm-sh/nvm
+* https://docs.volta.sh/guide/getting-started
+
+== Steps ==
+* Open a terminal inside the `\Client` folder
+* Run `npm install` to install all the dependencies
+* Run `npm run build` to build the project
+* The build output is copied to `wwwroot\App_Plugins\UmbracoExtension\PROJECT_NAME_KEBABCASE_FOR_NPM.js`
+
+== File Watching ==
+* Add this Razor Class Library Project as a project reference to an Umbraco Website project
+* From the `\Client` folder run the command `npm run watch` this will monitor the changes to the *.ts files and rebuild the project
+* With the Umbraco website project running the Razor Class Library Project will refresh the browser when the build is complete
+
+== Suggestion ==
+* Use VSCode as the editor of choice as it has good tooling support for TypeScript and it will recommend a VSCode Extension for good Lit WebComponent completions
+
+== Other Resources ==
+* Umbraco Docs - https://docs.umbraco.com/umbraco-cms/customizing/extend-and-customize-editing-experience
