App for learning programming using a basic CoffeeScript drawing API
You can try the app here »
git clone git@github.com:KanoComputing/make-art.git
cd make-art
yarn
Build the app before running it
yarn buildyarn build:web --env=production
yarn serve
Open your browser at http://localhost:4000
Run the watch script when developing
yarn watch
To build in the offline mode for Kano OS add these ENV vars:
OFFLINE=true NODE_ENV=production gulp
Since Node JS isn't included by default on the kit and the offline backend is implemented in Python, the easiest way to debug on the kit is to build the static assets on your machine and rsync them over to the kit as follows:
rsync -av make-art "user@ip:~/make-art"
On Kano OS, go to the bin/ directory and launch the kano-draw script
which will start the server and open a
python-webkit browser with Make
Art.
user@kano-os ~ $ cd ~/make-art/bin
user@kano-os ~ $ ./kano-draw

- Install VS Code (code-oss)
sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install code-oss
Note the "sudo apt-get update" is essential. Failing to do that will result in an "E: Unable to locate package code-oss" error.
Note that "sudo apt-get update" from now on will will show entries for "packagecloud.io/headmelted/codebuilds/raspbian", and "packages.microsoft.com/repos/vscode".
