Hey guys,
This is not so much a question as a remark that is likely to be useful for others installing the App Designer from scratch theses days. Perhaps we could incorporate some of that info into the documentation eventually - in the meantime by googling people should land here at some point.
If after installing Grunt & unzipping the app designer, you run the "grunt" command in your app_designer folder & get:
"The package grunt@1.0.1 does not satisfy its siblings' peerDependencies requirements!"
Basically the version of grunt you got by running:
- npm install grunt
Is the latest version, but what is specified in the dependancies is assumed to be grunt 0.4.5. In order to solve this:
- npm uninstall grunt
- npm install grunt@^0.4.5 --save-dev
If you then run the "grunt" command in you app designer folder, it'll start as expected.
···
======================Also one thing that doesn't come out so clearly in the present documentation is that on top of installing the grunt client (npm install -g grunt-cli), you need to install (locally) grunt IN EACH app designer folder. To do that, simply cd to the desired app designer folder & run the grunt@^0.4.5.... command mentioned above.
