To setup and develop we recommend you use a Linux Distribution, we preferUbuntu but any would suffice.

git clone https://github.com/MARIE-js/MARIE.js.git && cd MARIE.js && sudo apt-get install npm && sudo npm install -g grunt-cli && npm install && grunt bar-dev

• npm
• grunt-cli

This dependency is only required for testing the code:

• JRE 8

Firstly, you need to install the above dependencies as specified.

Then, whenever you want to work on the project from time to time, you must first change directories into the git project, pull the latest changes from GitHub, and runnpm install to install rest of the dependencies.

cd /path/to/repo/MARIE.js# Pulls the latest changes from GitHubgit pull# Installs any uninstalled dependenciesnpm install

Once you done this part, you're ready to build the project.

The development version builds faster, but the release version is designed to be slightly more efficient and compatible to more browsers.

grunt

Note: For Arch Linux and perhaps for some other Linux distributions, it may fail on the regenerator task. If this happens, then just build the development version which does not depend on the regenerator task.

grunt bar-dev
