clear and easy clutter install path(s)

[science-girl]

As a new clutter user I want the install instructions to not confuse me, and have a very easy time following them while installing them so I can successfully install it.

Current release zip (Feb 13th) is missing the react ui-src folder, meaning the README instructions don't apply.

• new clutter release zip
• update readmes to clarify using the source vs. the release version

You dont need the ui-src folder as its compiled into UI.

so it turns out that we MUST include a ui build in at least the develop and master branches. The reason for this is that hcdev init -cloneExample=clutter will fail otherwise. This command does a git clone into \tmp and then copies over just the standard set of directories dna test and ui. And we want people to be able to do that and having a running ui without having to do the npm build step.

Can we change hcdev init -cloneExample=clutter to pull from the latest Release?

[zippy]

Well, I don't like that because this is already also implemented: hcdev init -cloneExample=clutter -fromDevelop and also hcdev init -cloneExample=clutter -fromBranch=your-branch-here I guess we could figure out a new pattern going forward that takes into account the build cycle, but I don't want to do that last minute before alpha 1.

Should we use the current develop branch in order to create the new clutter release zip @zippy @philipbeadle. Thinking the 'archive' link the instructions needs to be updated. Anything specific that needs to be updated in the README you all see, I'm not clear if anything needs to be changed based on the previous comments. @science-girl thoughts?

This is all I've added so far to hopefully clarify some of the wording:
...
Dependencies: If you want to run Clutter locally, you will need nodejs (https://nodejs.org/en/) (LTS) installed, with npm or yarn (https://yarnpkg.com/lang/en/docs/install):

The following commands will clone the latest build of clutter to your machine and then you will either install npm or yarn to build the UI for the app. (this)

git clone https://github.com/Holochain/clutter.git
cd clutter/ui-src
npm install # (or yarn install)
npm run build # (or yarn build)
cd ..

Running Clutter (this)

Now if you want to run the app, you can run:

hcdev web # if you want to just run it temporarily and test it out, with scratch data

or

hcd web # if you want to really start to use the app

[science-girl]

I believe once we push to master and set tag to true, a new release will be created.
