GistRun

GistRun runs and edits GitHub Gists (surprise). GistRun is built with Aurelia, uses the GitHub API and is hosted on GitHub pages. CloudFlare provides DNS and Heroku hosts GistRun's integration with GitHub's OAuth web application flow. Many thanks to the providers of these free libraries and services!

Running The App

To run the app, follow these steps.

1. Ensure that NodeJS is installed. This provides the platform on which the build tooling runs.
2. From the project folder, execute the following command:

npm install

3. Ensure that Gulp is installed globally. If you need to install it, use the following command:

npm install -g gulp

Note: Gulp must be installed globally, but a local version will also be installed to ensure a compatible version is used for the project.

4. Ensure that jspm is installed globally. If you need to install it, use the following command:

5. To run the app, execute the following command:

gulp watch

6. Browse to http://localhost:9000 to see the app. You can make changes in the code found under src and the browser should auto-refresh itself as you save files.
