## Get your feet wet
|
|
|
|
This package is meant to provide a **good starting point** for working with Bulma.
|
|
|
|
When installing this package with the commands above, it landed in `$HOME/node_packages/bulma-start`.
|
|
In order to use it as a **template** for your **project**, you might consider copying it to a better suited location:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
cd $HOME/projects
|
|
cp -a $HOME/node_modules/bulma-start my-bulma-project
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Alternatively, you could do something similar with a GitHub clone as well.
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
cd $HOME/projects
|
|
git clone https://github.com/jgthms/bulma-start
|
|
mv bulma-start my-bulma-project
|
|
rm -rf my-bulma-project/.git # cut its roots
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Now, that you prepared the groundwork for your project, set up Bulma and run the watchers:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
cd my-bulma-project
|
|
npm install
|
|
npm start
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
As long as `npm start` is running, it will **watch** your changes. You can edit `_sass/main.scss` and `_javascript/main.js` at will. Changes are **immediately** compiled to their destinations, where `index.html` will pick them up upon reload in your browser.
|
|
|
|
Some controlling output is written to the `npm start` console in that process:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
_javascript/main.js -> lib/main.js
|
|
|
|
=> changed: $HOME/projects/start-with-bulma/_sass/main.scss
|
|
Rendering Complete, saving .css file...
|
|
Wrote CSS to $HOME/projects/start-with-bulma/css/main.css
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Use `npm run` to show all available commands:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
Lifecycle scripts included in bulma-start:
|
|
start
|
|
npm-run-all --parallel css-watch js-watch
|
|
|
|
available via `npm run-script`:
|
|
css-build
|
|
node-sass _sass/main.scss css/main.css
|
|
css-deploy
|
|
npm run css-build && npm run css-postcss
|
|
css-postcss
|
|
postcss --use autoprefixer --output css/main.css css/main.css
|
|
css-watch
|
|
npm run css-build -- --watch
|
|
deploy
|
|
npm run css-deploy && npm run js-build
|
|
js-build
|
|
babel _javascript --out-dir lib
|
|
js-watch
|
|
npm run js-build -- --watch
|
|
```
