Code for the ScratchJr website

Before Getting Started

• Make sure you have node (v4.2 or higher) and npm installed

To Build

npm install
make build

Note: There will be a warning about a peer dependency on jquery. You can ignore it because slick-carousel is only used for stylesheets.

To Run

npm start

During development, npm start watches any update you make to files in either ./static or ./src and triggers a rebuild of the project. In development the build is stored in memory, and not served from the ./build directory.

When running npm start, here are some important log messages to keep an eye out for:

• webpack: bundle is now VALID. – the bundle has been loaded into memory and is now viewable in the browser. This will show up both once npm start has completed its setup, and also once updates you make to files have been re-compiled for viewing in the browser.
• webpack: bundle is now INVALID. – if you see this, then it means you have made updates to files that are still being compiled for browser viewing. Pages will still be viewable, but they will not see any updates you made yet.

Once running, open http://localhost:8333 in your browser. If you wish to have the server reload automatically, you can install either nodemon or forever.

To stop

Use ^C to stop the node process npm start starts.

Configuration

npm start can be configured with the following environment variables
