Issue Getting IGListDiffable Plugin Installed

I've not used Typescript much before (in fact, just installed it before using Remodel) and use NPM maybe twice a year, so I might be missing something entirely obvious. I've browsed the past issues and wasn't able to get things quite working.

I'm attempting to install the IGListDiffable plugin documented here. The hang up occurs when I try to build things.

I've cloned this repo locally, and for brevity it's installed at something like this:
desktop/test/remodel-master

With a clean clone, I'm not quite able to build it:
cd /path/to/remodel
./bin/build

I get this error (it seems it can't locate promise.ts which appears to be in the src folder):

/Users/Jordan/Desktop/Test/remodel-master/bin/build ; exit;
module.js:549
    throw err;
    ^

More than happy to provide more details, and thanks releasing such a useful project!

As suspected, this was due to my ignorance with NPM. If any other devs run into issues running the build script, it's likely that you just simply need to run npm install in the same directory of wherever Remodel's package.json file is at. It seems this is analogous to Cocoapod's Podfile, as it installs all of the dependencies needed.
