The current directory is known as [root]

Install

• install nodejs https://nodejs.org/en/

Open terminal an cd to the this dir and execute

yarn install

why yarn

we use yarn because npm (currently?) not allows to install some packages from github e.g. https://github.com/janisdd/brace error:

npm ERR! code ENOPACKAGEJSON
npm ERR! package.json Non-registry package missing package.json: git+https://github.com/janisdd/brace.git.
npm ERR! package.json npm can't find a package.json file in your current directory.

Running dev server

if you added/removed some library make sure to run

npm run vendor

before so the files at dist/nocopy are updated

then to run the dev server run

npm run dev

Build for backend

npm run build

the output is dist/*, the folder nocopy is for development

Adding a package

e.g. yarn add react react-dom @types/react @types/react-dom

after adding a package you need to rebuild the vendor.dll.js file run npm run vendor

Hints

• fsevents is needed on MacOS (at least for webpack@3.6 else the dev server will take 100% cpu watching files for changes
