Build

You will need node.js 6.x.

On Windows, download and install the latest 6.x (stable) version with the Windows Installer (.msi).

On Ubuntu 14.04, here is an easy way to install node.js via apt-get

curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_6.x | sudo -E bash -
sudo apt-get install -y nodejs

Run it

npm install    # install dependencies
npm run build  # build app
npm start      # start web server

and navigate to http://localhost:8081 in your browser.

For development

npm run dev &
npm start

and navigate to http://localhost:8080 in your browser.

(Note that designer performance in development mode is a lot worse)
