Install from Source

Install the latest version of Node.js (at least the version that ships with the current Electron release) with node-gyp and all its requirements for your platform.

Then clone this repository and run npm install to install all of Tropy's dependencies.

Creating Builds

To create a dev build for your current platform run the following scripts in order at the root of the repository:

node scripts/make clean
node scripts/make compile
node scripts/build

This will create a dev build of Tropy in the dist folder.

Running in Dev Mode

Alternatively, you can start Tropy in dev mode directly in the repository, by running npm start.
