###To get this working locally:

  1. Install Node.js: http://nodejs.org/

  2. Run 'npm install' from the wordplay directory to install all of the required dependencies. (This should work. If it doesn't, you can manually install the follwoing using npm install : express, rita, jade, stylus, nib, forever, marked )

  3. Run 'node wordplay-app.js'

  4. Visit http://121.0.0.7 in your browser

###To edit pages

Right now I'm using a templating system to serve content. Which is probably overkill, but it gives me a good chance to learn to use this stuff.

Pages are being served by Jade: http://jade-lang.com/ CSS by Nib & Stylus: http://learnboost.github.io/stylus/ http://visionmedia.github.io/nib/
