LOCAL DEV SETUP

Prerequisites

Make sure you have installed all of the following prerequisites on your development machine:

• Node.js - Download & Install Node.js v6.10.3. I would recommend using nvm (Node Version Manager) if possible as it allows you to run multiple versions of node simultaneously.

• MongoDB - Download & Install MongoDB Community Server

• Ruby - Download & Install Ruby

• Install Bower globally using the command:

   npm install -g bower
  

• Install Gulp globally using the command:

   npm install -g gulp
   npm install -g gulp-cli
  

• Install sass for compiling css using the command: (Make sure you have ruby installed):

   gem install sass
  

Getting Started

1. Clone repository

2. Navigate to cloned dir and install npm dependencies with the command:

   npm install
   

3. In a separate shell run MongoDB with the command:

   mongod
   

4. In the dir after npm install completes, start the app with the command:

   gulp
   

Your application should run on port 3000 with the development environment configuration, so in your browser just go to http://localhost:3000

Explore config/env/development.js for development environment configuration options

Running in Production mode

To run your application with production environment configuration, execute gulp as follows:

gulp prod
