Getting Started

To get started you can simply clone the load-seed repository and install the dependencies:

Prerequisites

You need git to clone the load-seed repository. You can get git from http://git-scm.com/

The project also uses a number of node.js tools to initialize and build load-seed. You must have node.js and its package manager (npm) installed. You can get them from http://nodejs.org/

Clone load-seed

Clone the load-seed repository using git:

git clone https://github.com/glua/load-seed
cd load-seed

If you just want to start a new project without the load-seed commit history then you can do:

git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/glua/load-seed.git <your-project-name>

The depth=1 tells git to only pull down one commit worth of historical data.

Install Dependencies

This project requires a few tools before you can begin developing your loading screen with it. After installing node.js, you can simply run the following commands to install all dependencies:

npm install
npm install -g gulp

After running these commands, you should find the a node_modules folder within your project.

Run the Application

The project is preconfigured with a simple development web server. To start this server, enter the following:

gulp serve

Now browse to the loading screen at http://localhost:9000/.

Hosting

When you're ready to host your loading screen, enter the following:

gulp build

The final project files will be built into a dist folder within your project. You'll need to upload these files to a web server.
