Balanced Static Site

What

Welcome to the Balanced Static Site.

As an open company we want to put as much of our company in the public view as possible. We're creating our homepage as a static site that anyone can fork, comment on, contribute to, or generally tinker with.

How

Running locally

You will need node installed as a development dependency. See node's site for help with that.

1. npm install -g grunt-cli
2. npm install
3. Build - grunt
4. To view in a browser - http://localhost:8080/
5. To run unit tests at the command line grunt test
6. To build for deployment grunt build

Building and Deploying

1. To build everything grunt build
2. To deploy to S3 grunt deploy

Note: To build, you need to have binary dependendencies installed for grunt-img. See the project page for how to set that up. If you have a Mac and use homebrew, you can run this to install them:

	brew install optipng jpeg

Note: In order to deploy to S3, you must have the appropriate AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY environment variables set
