System Manual

Building BBDash requires NodeJS v14 or later, and yarn v2

1. Clone the repo using git clone https://github.com/EricRabil/BBDash.git

2. In the base directory, execute yarn to install all dependencies for the project. We use Yarn Workspaces for managing our packages.

Once your environment is set up, you're ready to build.

All plain-TypeScript projects can be built in one go thanks to TS references. You can run yarn ts:build for a one-off build or yarn ts:watch for incremental builds.

To build the Chromium extension, run yarn crx:build or yarn crx:watch for incremental compilation.
