Before you can run this from source, you'll need the disk image. It's not part of the

section.
Unpack the images
folder into the src
folder, creating this layout:
- /images/windows95.img
- /images/default-state.bin
- /assets/...
- /bios/...

Once you've done so, run npm install
and npm start
to run your local build.
