About GridTracker
Developing GridTracker
GridTracker runs using NWJS, a tools that wraps both Chrome windows and node processes into a native application.
To work on GridTracker you need to clone this git repository and then invoke NWJS with the contents of package.nw.
NWJS comes in two flavors, "normal" and "sdk". GridTracker is distributed with the normal flavor, but for development work we recommend the SDK flavor because it provides access to Chrome's Developer Tools, among other things.
Developing on Windows
To access the Developer Tools, right-click on an unused area of a window, or press F12.
Developing on Linux
To access the Developer Tools, right-click on an unused area of a window, or press F12.
Developing on Mac
We suggest using the macos/run.sh script to launch GridTracker while developing. It will download the sdk flavor of NWJS if needed,
and use it to run the app.
To access the Developer Tools, right-click on an unused area of a window, or press F12.
