STEP #0 — Don't have Node.js + npm installed? Read this. (CLICK TO EXPAND!)
In case you are an absolute beginner to the world of Node.js, JavaScript, and npm packages — all you need to do is go to the Node's site download + install Node on your system. This will install both Node.js and npm, i.e., node package manager — the command line interface of Node.js.
You can verify the install by opening your terminal app and typing...
node -v
# Results into v9.11.2 — make sure you have Node >= 8 installed.
npm -v
# Results into v6.2.0 — make sure you have npm >= 5.3 installed.Download gulpfile.js, package.json, .gitignore and config.js files inside the root folder of your project.
OR use your terminal to browse your desired folder and run the following command which will download all the required files for you via cURL.
curl -L https://git.io/pudlgfl -o "gulpfile.js" && curl -L https://git.io/pudlpkjs -o "pacakge.json" && curl -L https://git.io/pudlgig -o ".gitignore" && curl -L https://git.io/pudlcg -o "config.js"Change the project variables in the config.js file according to your folder structure.
// Project Variables.
module.exports = {
viewSrc: './views/**/*.pug',
viewDst: './',
styleSrc: './css/style.scss',
styleDst: './',
outputStyle: 'compressed',
viewWatchFiles: './views/**/*.pug',
styleWatchFiles: './css/**/*.scss',
browserAutoOpen: false,
injectChanges: true
};In the root folder install the Node Dependencies. In the terminal run this command and wait for it to download all the node.js dependencies. It's a one-time process and can take about 5 minutes depending on the speed of your internet connection.
# For MAC OS X run the following command with super user.
sudo npm install
# For Linux run the following command.
npm installFinally run the following command to get up and running with pudl.
# To start pudl
