- If node.js is not installed, download and install it from the node.js website. This will also install npm.
- If grunt is not installed, install grunt with
npm install -g grunt-cli(this may need sudo permission). - Clone this repository and navigate to the repository root directory.

*Note: this has only been tested with Google Chrome Version 24.0.1312.69 running on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6. With my setup it is necessary to run Chrome with the --allow-file-access-from-files flag. e.g. I might run
google-chrome datum-wills.html --allow-file-access-from-filesAt the time of writing, only a small part of the first chapter of the story has been implemented. There are currently 4 chapters planned, each with several code-writing challenges. You can read the story on the wiki.
