fewd = front end web dev

this is me (PRH) trying to learn some front end web dev because pixels are important despite my wishes.

Building/Running

Prereqs

1. Install Erlang and ZX

2. DEV ONLY: apt install node-typescript (Devuan Excalibur)

   This is needed if you want to edit the .ts files found in /priv/static/js/ts/*.ts. The built JS files are under version control and can be found in /priv/static/js/dist/

Building/Running HTTP Server

If you are only changing the Erlang or simply just want to run the program without developing it, then just run

zxh runlocal

Building TS->JS

This is only necessary if you edited the .ts files and want to transpile them over to JS.

This requires you installed tsc as above.

make tsc

If you're doing development you may want

make watch
