Getting Started

Clone the Sandbox application.

 $ git clone https://github.com/akshayKhot/Sandbox.git

Change to the Sandbox directory and install the npm packages.

What's Aurelia?

Aurelia is an open-source, opinionated, JavaScript framework. It is designed to enable you to easily build powerful web, mobile, or desktop applications. Aurelia uses open web standards. Its no-nonsense, get-out-of-your-way conventions allow you to quickly build powerful applications. Read the documentation to learn more about Aurelia.
