Prototype of science visualizations as part of my practical work for the Master of Arts in Design.

The Master Prototype is build with Middleman, Marionette, Backbone, Underscore, jQuery, D3 and written in CoffeeScript, and Sass. Components are handled using Bower and the repository is hosted on Bitbucket.

1. Make sure you have npm, middleman, and bower installed
2. Change to the application directory
3. Run npm install in Terminal
4. Run bower install in Terminal
5. Run rake server in Terminal
6. The application is running on port 4567

Thanks to Bower you'll (almost) never have to track down and download front-end libraries yourself anymore. Any JS/CSS dependencies are specified in component.json.

To quickly add a new library run bower install jquery --save The --save flag automatically adds the library to component.json. You can also edit component.json yourself and then run bower install

To start the local development server run rake server The application is running on port 4567

To build the project run rake build To build and pack it up in a ZIP archive run rake pack_build

Configure the different staging and production remotes in remotes.yml. To deploy to each remote run rake deploy:staging Or rake deploy:production
