Getting Started

Installing the generator tool

The purpose of this tool is to generate a foundation for new projects. In order to produce these foundational files, you need to first install the tool:

npm install -g fsg

Scaffolding out the foundational files

Create a new directory for your project anywhere on your machine and cd into it:

mkdir insert-project-name-here && cd insert-project-name-here

Once inside, simply running the command fsg will produce the beginning files.

After you've generated the files, ensure the following commands are run in the project root:

npm install

bower install

gulp build

If you do not have bower or gulp installed on your machine, install them using npm install -g.

MongoDB database

Finally, the generated project assumes a running MongoDB database on port 27017 (the default MongoDB port).
