To host this documentation locally you'll need Node.js and npm on your workstation. You can install these tools using your preferred package manager for your OS. The following example uses Brew for OS X:
brew install nodejs
If you don't already have Grunt installed, you'll need that too:
npm install -g grunt-cli
Once you have these installed, navigate to this repository's directory on your machine and run:
npm install
This will install any other necessary dependencies needed for this application to run on your workstation.
This documentation uses Grunt and Assemble to build and push documentation updates. Once everything's installed, run the following command to build the documentation:
grunt build
The generated documentation will be located in the build directory. If you would like to host this documentation locally, run:
grunt server
This should open your default web browser to the docs homepage http://localhost:9000
When updated documentation is pushed to the master branch, it is automatically pushed to Heroku by Travis CI.
Travis calls grunt deploy, which is the same as grunt build, except that it also zips up the docs for downloading.
To see the latest build, visit the Travis CI page.
